Many people contend that marriage is a relationship that carries the principle of friendship to its ultimate and most intimate degree. I think they are mistaken." One of the most influential psychotherapists of our time revisits his two dozen myths two decades later. Surprises aplenty in this no-holds barred conversation with readers about the myths that get married couples in trouble. The notions that Husbands and wives should be best friends, Marriage should be a 50-50 partnership, and An unhappy marriage is better than a broken home, are explored, debunked, and re-examined in the light of 21st century hindsight. This is a provocative, insightful, sometimes disturbing look at some of our most cherished beliefs about marriage.
