Shannon's admonition to "guard one's heart"
 
Review Date: June 5, 2007
Reviewer: FaithfulReader.com, New York, New York
Bestselling author Shannon Ethridge has teamed up with her husband Greg in this newest installment of the Every Woman's series. In EVERY WOMAN'S MARRIAGE, the authors put in their two cents on a myriad of marital topics, all with a singular goal in mind: that of igniting (and sustaining) joy and passion in marriage. Shannon's plainspoken deliberateness allows female readers the opportunity to study their own spousal relationship with an "insider's" eye.

As the female half of the Ethridge writing duo, Shannon offers scenarios and suggestions for recognizing potential pitfalls, recurring mistakes, and short-circuited communication attempts. Then she presents biblically sound alternatives for wives to begin consistently implementing and focusing on repairing damage already done. On the heels of Shannon's comments, Greg interjects the male's take on the same topic. This alternating presentation is both smooth and effective. Women are not left wondering how men perceive identical scenarios; they are handed them on a platter.

In this five-part marriage handbook, the Ethridges discuss (and dissect) the hows and whys of marriages in which both partners' hearts grow cold, understanding the wisdom of honing a "big picture" view of lifelong relationships, reasons why a man's joy and passions die, specific ways to reignite a husband's flame, and finally, throwing fuel on that flame to keep the momentum going over the long haul of a lifetime commitment.

One reason for Shannon Ethridge's popular appeal to female readers is her willingness to admit candidly past and current struggles. She invites women to stop hiding behind facades and fears and take proper initiative to "grow" a passionate marriage. For those women interested in investing time, effort and concerted compassionate love toward developing strong marriages, she lays out the goods by reminding readers "that men aren't all that different from women when it comes to their basic needs. Men have emotional needs too, and they can feel a sense of desperation when those needs aren't being met."

Shannon also tells her female audience not to be fooled by transient emotional counterfeits to genuine intimacy. Sure, those intense feelings of excitement are great starting points, but they are also superficial and temporary. Said this way, "intimacy can best be understood by breaking the word down into syllables: in-to-me-see." Only through long-term, living-with-someone kind of history can both partners experience the depth of real intimate love that God intended.

Thus, Shannon's admonition to "guard one's heart" makes practical sense. She notes that far too many couples forfeit this stronger, richer love simply because they never learned to make the transition from the fiery emotions of early attraction to the enduring, focused and self-sacrificial love necessary to a marriage that lasts. Says the author: "Your love for your husband won't be based on butterflies or fireworks, but on familiarity, honesty, trust, safety, security, and commitment."

Review Date: February 25, 2009
Reviewer: JMONA Mona, Orlando
I have to say, i never thought i would review this book, but after reading it i just had to.
This just Helped me SO MUCH! This made me reflect on how a woman should behave with her husband at all times, when he is at work, or a trip or most importantly at home, i never thought i would open my mind to so many possibilities on how to make things better in my relationship with my husband, considering i have been a very jealous person for the last 5 years to the point it almost cost me my marriage. This helped me so much Spiritually and i learned that it doesn't make 2 to keep a marriage rolling but 3,, You, God and Your Spouse, i learned that if God isn't the center of your relationship, to get ready for a shipwreck + casualties!.
I'm so Thankful to this book, its Author and the Knowledge God gave them to help me and so many other marriages around the world that not only need some advice on how to make it work, but good insight on how to make you individually happy as well.
Thank You Shannon for being Part of Saving my Marriage!

Review Date: August 14, 2009
Reviewer: Cindy Lou Snow, Michigan
This is a straightforward book that will touch your heart and make you WANT to change your behavior and attitude towards your husband. It helps you understand how God wired your guy and what it means to him when you use sex or a lack of it to "punish" him. As a Christian woman, I loved the way personal circumstances were woven into this book making it easy to relate to. The author gives specific examples of things to do and say making it easy to understand exactly what can bring joy and passion into any marriage that wants to survive. This is a must read for any woman who wants to add more joy and passion to her marriage!

www.keytogetexback.com There are some people that meet the love of their life when they are in high school or college, and they end up with that person for the rest of their lives. You may have noticed that people having difficulty with their relationships almost always try to find possible solutions to their failing partnership even before pinpointing what the real problem is. No matter what the reason why she lost you it is not significant. It is not important whose fault it is. It doesnt even matter who puts the relationship off and break it up, what matters most is that you have a real love. http That is because so many are putting off marriage, and some simply have no desire for something serious while they are in their twenties. This means that most people have to deal with a relationship break up at some point that is going to be very painful. The amount of time it takes for someone to heal from a romantic relationship break up depends on quite a few things. One would be the length of the relationship in question, and how close the two involved had become with each other. Some people take months to fall in love, and others fall instantly. The intensively of what went on can dictate the pain of a relationship break up. If you find that you are dealing with a relationship break up, and you seem to be stuck in the first stages of intense pain, you are probably thinking you always going to feel that way. This is not true, but it can be hard to get through that and see …

A complete marital therapy program based on the author's much heralded research on marital success and failure.

Comprehensive overview!
 
Review Date: July 12, 2002
Reviewer: Andreas Fellner, München
This book by John Gottman deals with nearly all aspects of marital therapy: myths and mistakes, assessment methods, and interventions.
It is strictly research oriented, i.e. Gottman does not follow a special theoretical school such as psychodynamic of cognitive-behavioral marital therapy. His findings from the last 30 years include many diversions from classical marital therapy as well as some really surprising finding. Let me give you just one example: active listening, the core concept of many therapies is NOT fundamental for a good marriage. Actually, even happily married couples very rarely use active listening. This is not to say that active listening is harmful, it is just not necessary for developing and maintaining a happy relationship.
Gottman offers his own version of clinically proven interventions, their respective assumptions and sections for dealing with problems.
This book is aimed for therapists and counselors. They will find a wealth of information, especially a lot of assessment instruments.
Every professional in the area of marital therapy should read this book. You will surely find many recommendations. After all, it's the clients' health you are serving. Gottman's interventions have proven to be greatly beneficial for couples: his clients divorce half as often as clients treated with traditional marriage therapy.
That alone should be reason enough to actively use his methods.
The interested lay person should read Gottman's book "The 7 principles for making marriage work" which explains his findings in easy to understand language.
By and large, this book is an excellent example of a professional resource book!
Profound view of marital therapy
 
Review Date: February 5, 2000
Reviewer: ,
This remarkable book advances the understanding of what works in marital and, I believe, family therapy. Early chapters review marital theories, and how they lived up to their assumptions when tested through well designed research. Gottman presents a very respectful attitude toward the marital couple and emphasizes the importance of honoring the goal of establishing and supporting the couple's self sufficiency. The chapter titled Buffering Children From Marital Conflict is an insightful introduction into how to help parents develop the tools to strenghten their children's resilience. As a person who has worked with at risk children and families for 17 years and has recently completed a masters degree in mental health counseling, I have read my share of family counseling books. From Satir to Whitaker to Lang to Minuchen(sp)... (you get the point). This is by far the best book on the subject!
Exceptional!
 
Review Date: January 12, 2008
Reviewer: Dr. B, Bethesda, MD United States
At last there is an answer to the question I've been asking since beginning my studies in psychology--"Isn't there anything ELSE?" There are many schools of thought that reign in fiefdoms of psychology, including systems theory, behaviorism, Imago, and psychodynamic to name a few. Each is dogmatic, and when tested across research studies, all can benefit patients (despite zealous claims to the contrary by the priesthoods in each camp). However, until I read The Marriage Clinic, I was not aware that our field has shown such poor results in the area of marital therapy. While individual psychotherapy tends to work, Gottman sites research to show that marital therapy does not create lasting change. This is serious.

Our current state of the art in marital and family therapy tends include unsatisfying, unnatural, and even ridiculous, techniques for clinicians to use with people facing the problem of how to improve their marriage. Thank goodness for people like Gottman, who actually collect data to inform decisions, and use common sense and humanity to understand and apply those findings. I see Gottman as our field's greatest living visionary, whose research and relationship building techniques will hopefully spread to parent-child relationships and IO psychology as well.

As to this book specifically, don't get it unless you are a clinician. If you are looking to help your own marriage, I suggest The Seven Principals of Making Marriage Work, which is very user friendly. The Marriage Clinic is quite technical in parts, and can be dense, however it is a very fun read. Gottman's personality and humor come through loud and clear. I found myself laughing out loud at times. I confess I enjoy how he exposes the senselessness of so much of the techniques we currently utilize, and backs it up with meticulous research. This book begins with a solid lit review, a discussion of Gottman's basic ideology and rationale, and then goes into the nuts and bolts of how to apply his ideas.

Even if you are not a marital therapist, it will change the way you look at relationships. He teaches a new vocabulary for describing what you are observing in relationships that I find exceptionally helpful. I would recommend this to anyone conducting psychotherapy, as it will improve your ability to make inferences about your patient's relationships. I also enjoyed the case vignettes very much. If you like Gottman, I highly recommend his books on parenting as well.
