HOW TO LOVE YOUR WIFE by Dr. John Buri
Tate Publishing & Enterprises
Genre: Love & Marriage
Rating: Very Good
ISBN: 1598864858, $13.99, 211 pp.
There are many books on love and marriage, and here is another one. Dr. Buri’s contention is that thriving marriages can actually be achieved through sensible effort by reasonable people, and he places significant responsibility upon the men, as they hold the key . . . to which I agree.
Books such as this one typically tell us things we already know but have no control over. However, Dr. Buri’s book is extremely contemporary, dealing with new problems such as the increased interest in pornography and husbands using the internet for sexual contact. Studies have shown that men who view porn on a regular basis eventually find their partners less attractive and appealing. Dr. Buri clarifies the positive and necessary aspects of conflict, talks about rapport-talk versus report-talk, and concludes with "The Heart of Intimacy: Communication."
How to Love Your Wife is well written and edited. It progresses in a logical manner, is insightful and informative. Based on its contemporary focus, I can highly recommend it as food for thought to help in our personal relationships.
