Publisher's Notes
This breakthrough book, How One of You Can Bring the Two of You Together, suggests a completely different approach for improving a marriage. Susan Page dispels the myth that repairing a relationship is necessarily a two-person task and shows that making changes in your marriage by yourself is an effective and a low-stress strategy. Based on the premise that what you do in a relationship changes how you feel about it, Page shows you how you can take individual action that will result in mutual strength and happiness.Step by step, Page demonstrates that the secret to a thriving marriage is finding the balance between taking care of yourself and extending good will to your partner. Through a series of experiments, she introduces the concept of Loving Leadership and presents a range of solo strategies for creating harmony in a marriage, including how to:* Develop fresh perspectives about your relationship* Overcome resentment and move beyond blame* Solve major problems--one at a time* Ensure that your needs are met regardless of your partner's actions* Recapture lost intimacyWith tangible goals, you can work through your own frustrations to arrive at new thinking and new actions. In this wise and inspiring book, you will learn, as Susan Page writes, that: "Deciding to work alone on your relationship gives you enormous power, not power over your partner, but inner power and personalstrength. Working alone on your relationship gives you an unparalleled opportunity to grow."For anyone in a relationship that needs major repairs--or just a little TLC--here is the ultimate do-it-yourself handbook.

Give & Take
by Willard F. Harley
Most couples begin marriage blissfully compatible and deeply in love. But they usually don't stay that way. Why? In Give and Take you will find out why you and your spouse may have lost the compatibility you started with. Then Dr. Harley will show you how to restore it, making you not only compatible, but also as much in love with each other as you ever were. You will learn about your Giver and Taker (and about your spouse's Giver and Taker). You will learn how they can mess up your marriage, but also how to educate these characters and turn them into heroes. Dr. Harley will also introduce you to the "three states of marriage" that prevent couples from getting what they need most in marriage. But with Dr. Harley's help, you will learn to overcome their destructive influence. You will learn to give what your spouse needs most in marriage, and take what you need most in return. By learning to give and take fairly and effectively, you and your spouse can grow in love and compatibility.

How One of You Can Bring the Two of You Together : Breakthrough Strategies to Solve Your Conflicts and Reignite Your Love
Page, Susan
Broadway, 1997. Hardcover. Good/DJ Good. Inside is clean and excellent. Title page pulls back as if it was left open to that spot too long. Inside is clean and excellent. From Library Journal: Page (Now That I'm Married, Why Isn't Everything Perfect?, LJ 1/94) believes in approaching things differently. Contrary to the mainstream "couples" approach to relational counseling, Page convincingly claims that just one person in a relationship can create momentous positive growth that will bring both people closer together. She believes that for every action there is always an equal, opposite reaction, and that one person's fundamental shift toward "good will" lays the foundation for a better relationship. Page begins with the practical strategies that one person can use to repair a relationship, then turns to philosophical underpinnings. Her consistent standard for her advice is practicality and ease of use. This breakthrough book belongs in all libraries. Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
