I have read many dozens of self help and interpersonal communication books. For me this one will always be head and shoulders above every other. It was like we had a multi head ratcheting screwdriver for our marriage. This book will teach you an amazing skill set/toolkit for strong human relationships. Emotion management techniques also very helpful, WHEN PRACTICED. 😬 (There’s always a catch, isn’t there? 😏) The techniques are a bit awkward to learn, but liberating in the extreme to practice. IMO, the very best.
