This healing process is both fulfilling and demanding.Whether you are newly engaged, recently married, or married for many years, the conflict-resolving strategies described in this book―the habits of a healthy marriage―can help you to protect your relationship from the emotional storms that often lead to quarrelling and mistrust, and sometimes to separation and divorce.
