Great book. I may disagree with a few points, but overall, I have been highly educated by this read. The compilation of study cases is very well done as is the general layout of this book. I wish I had read this before I was married!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good textbook!

J.S.J. · December 12, 2015

The textbook is well informative but certain parts seem to be more biased by contrasting men and women in a variety of things and seems to constructed, but the technical portions of different love styles, dating concepts, marriage concepts and other things were very well in precision on simplicity. I'm thankful for the book I've brought but it does raise question a little, that maybe I should have reviewed my options a little more but in all I do think the Marriage and Family: The Quest for Intimacy is a good book to possess just think there could be more improvement and less biased propaganda and something not seeming as its from feminist studies but more equilibrium without the assumption as men are more so batters or brutes, I've also notice that theirs a great deal proportion of accusations that make it seem like almost every thing is rape, assault or molestation (wasn't feeling those sections as much).

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this textbook!

M.m.l. · April 20, 2016

I have never loved a textbook before. This book is just fantastic! The best chapters by far are the ones about power and conflict as well as communication. I will certainly be keeping it and reference it often.
