"[A]n important addition to the field of couple therapy...the first
time that a couple therapy is developed from marital research."
*International Academy for Marital Spirituality Review*
"John Gottman has done it again! The foremost researcher in the
area of couple relationships has written another innovative
germinal book on family relations, this time focused on therapeutic
interventions for distressed couples. What distinguishes this book
from other treatises on family therapy is that it is based not on
clinical speculation but on scientific research findings from the
hundreds of families intensively studied in Gottman's lab. This is
one of the most important books on couple therapy ever written and
is an essential addition to the library of every family therapist
or family researcher."
*E. Mavis Hetherington, PhD, James E. Page Professor of Psychology,
University of Virginia*
"With The Marriage Clinic, John Gottman, the Mozart of family
research, has turned his enormous talents and skills to the task of
creating a new, empirically based marital therapy. Unlike previous
marital therapies, this one is based on 25 years of longitudinal
research on real couples—distressed, happy, and in between. Written
with clarity, humor, and erudition, The Marriage Clinic propels
couple therapy into the 21st century with a solid scientific and
clinical foundation. Read it and get on board."
*William M. Pinsof, PhD, President, The Family Institute at
Northwestern University*
"This book reflects a wonderful blend of the highest quality
research on marriage and practical, clear guidelines for an
innovative approach to marital therapy. It reflects Dr. Gottman's
unique accomplishments as a researcher, his keen ability to
perceive the patterns of emotion and beliefs in marital couples,
and his clear recognition of the limits of previous approaches to
marital therapy."
*David Reiss, MD, Vivian Gill Distinguished Research Professor,
George Washington University Medical Center*
