About this listen
Just as Masters and Johnson were pioneers in the study of human sexuality, so Dr. John Gottman has revolutionized the study of marriage. As a professor of psychology at the University of Washington and the founder and director of the Seattle Marital and Family Institute, he has studied the habits of married couples in unprecedented detail over the course of many years. His findings, and his heavily attended workshops, have already turned around thousands of faltering marriages.
This book is the culmination of his life's work: the seven principles that guide couples on the path toward a harmonious and long-lasting relationship. Straightforward in their approach, yet profound in their effect, these principles teach partners new and startling strategies for making their marriage work. Gottman helps couples focus on each other, on paying attention to the small day-to-day moments that, strung together, make up the heart and soul of any relationship. Being thoughtful about ordinary matters provides spouses with a solid foundation for resolving conflict when it does occur and finding strategies for living with those issues that cannot be resolved.
The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is the definitive guide for anyone who wants their relationship to attain its highest potential.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

useful kit for use in marriage
Good instructions and straight to the point on what to and what not to do in marriage. Good solution for marriages in turmoil. Multiple choice however doesn't make great deal of listening.

An amazing very well researched book
I have a hard copy of this book and I sometimes don’t have time to read so I came to get the audiobook as well. John Gottman has revolutionised my marriage and I’m really grateful ! This is a manual for life and I will consistently come back to it. Well narrated in the audiobook too.

Thank you
How I wish I had come across this book much earlier in life. Before I had made certain decisions that proved very costly to reverse. But I am happy that through hard earned personal experience, what this book says is the truth and then some. Grateful.
