Why Marriages Succeed Or Fail

"One of the foremost relationship experts at work today applies the insights of science toward understanding the real meaning of trust between a couple. He decodes the "why" behind betrayal and shows how partners can avoid or recover from unfaithfulness and maintain a loving relationship.Dr. John Gottman, the country's pre-eminent researcher on marriage, is famous for his Love Lab at the University of Washington in Seattle where he deciphers the mysteries of human relationships through scientific research. His thirty-five years of exploration have earned him numerous major awards, including from the National Institute of Mental Health, the American Psychological Association, and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. Now, Dr. Gottman offers surprising findings and advice on the characteristic that is at the heart of all relationships: Trust. Dr. Gottman has developed a formula that precisely calculates any couple's loyalty level. The results determine a relationship's likely future, including the potential for one or both partners to stray. A Love You Can Trust shows couples how to bolster their trust level and avoid what Dr. Gottman calls the "Roach Motel for Lovers." He describes how the outcome of--"sliding door moments," small pivotal points between a couple, can lead either to more emotional connection or to discontent. He suggests a new approach to handling adultery and reveals the varied and unexpected non-sexual ways that couples often betray each other. A Love You Can Trust guides couples through an empirically tested, trust-building program that will let them repair and maintain a long-term, intimate, and romantic relationship"--

Rules for Parents

Dr. John Gottman passou décadas observando a interação de milhares de casais em suas instalações apelidadas de "Laboratório do Amor" na Universidade de Washington. Ele fez uma análise minuciosa da interação entre os pares, que foram atentamente observados — desde suas reações biológicas e linguagem corporal até efetivamente as palavras — enquanto conversavam sobre assuntos cotidianos e também quando discutiam. Em quase quatro décadas de estudos, dr. Gottman acumulou dados extremamente preciosos que já ajudaram milhares de pessoas a compreender melhor a complexidade dos relacionamentos. Em "O que faz o amor durar?", sua extensa pesquisa é aplicada às questões fundamentais da confiança e da traição. A deslealdade nem sempre se expressa como um caso sexual. Frequentemente, assume uma forma não reconhecida como infidelidade pelos casais, mas que quase sempre está no centro da decadência dos relacionamentos. Quando o marido coloca a carreira na frente do relacionamento, trai. Se a mulher persiste em quebrar a promessa de iniciar uma família quando o marido está ansioso por ter filhos, também trai. A frieza enraizada, o egoísmo, a incompreensão e tantos outros comportamentos destrutivos são evidências da traição e podem levar a consequências tão devastadoras quanto o adultério. Baseado em descobertas científicas, o livro ensina aos leitores como identificar os sinais, os comportamentos e as atitudes que indicam traição — sexual ou não — e ensina estratégias para recuperar o amor, mesmo quando a crise no relacionamento parece irremediável.

O que faz o amor durar

DETTE FÅR MAGIEN OG PASJONEN I PARFORHOLDET TIL Å VARE Den verdensberømte eksperten på parforhold presenterer i denne boken nye funn fra sin forskning. Mange aspekter ved parforhold er formidlet i John Gottmans øvrige bøker, men her får leseren nøkkelen til livslang kjærlighet: hvordan man beholder magien og pasjonen i parforholdet. «Vi gled bare fra hverandre» er det vi oftest hører fra folk som har gått gjennom et samlivsbrudd.

I Livslang kjærlighet har John Gottman funnet en ny og revolusjonerende tilnærming til parforhold og presenterer unike innsikter som ikke kommer frem i hans andre bøker. Gjennom å følge hans enkle, forskningsbaserte og effektive råd, kan du ikke bare forhindre at parforholdet gradvis smuld-rer bort, men få magien og pasjonen til å vare. Gottman viser deg hva som skaper den livslange kjærligheten, og hvilken enorm betydning det vil få for livet ditt..
