Book description
From the authors of the best-selling
The Secrets of Happily Married Men
comes the much-anticipated follow-up book The Secrets of Happily
Married Women
. In their first book, Dr. Haltzman and his coauthor Theresa Foy
DiGeronmio outlined a recipe for men about growing a happy marriage:
treat marriage with the same sense of purpose, resolve, and
single-minded devotion that they have for their job. Although that
workplace formula works well for men, an entirely different set of
criteria resonate with women.
In The Secrets of Happily Married
Women, Dr. Haltzman tells us stories from real women who are happy in
their relationships. These women know how to get more out of their
partners by doing less, by not trying so hard to make men perfect, not
dragging them to couples therapy, not expecting them to think or
behave like a woman. These are women from Dr. Haltzman's clinical
practice and culled from thousands of contributors to his Web site www.
HappilyMarriedWomen. com. They have learned to understand how
men really work and tap into men's powerful hard-wired desire to
please women and "be a better man."
Dr. Scott Haltzman is clinical assistant professor of psychiatry and
human behavior at Brown University and medical director of NRI
Community Services in Rhode Island. He also has an active private
practice, with a focus on marriage counseling for individuals and
couples. You can reach him at DrScott@HappilyMarriedWomen. com.
Theresa Foy DiGeronimo is the author of more than fifty books in the
fields of education, parenting, and family relationships.
