Summary: Good for those thinking of marriage, Christian or otherwise
Comment: This is a short, easy to read book, intended to give some advice to young couples contemplating marriage. This slow reader began and finished the book within a couple hours, but the length of time reading the book does not reflect how useful the book is. Some of Dobson's main points are: keep Christ as the center of your relationship (Dobson being an evengelical Christian, writing to others who strongly value Christ); make sure you see eye-to-eye on the big things and be prepared to get into big fights about little things; men and women think differently and it would benefit you greatly to learn the way the other sex thinks. Dobson writes in a fluid style and liberally sprinkles in anecdotes, research, and selections from others' works to make his points. In doing this, he makes his main points stand out and makes his book a fun, lighthearted one written about a subject that is anything but light. Recommended.

Summary: This is the one marriage book everyone should read!
Comment: I learned more about building and maintaining a happy marriage from this book than from all the other marriage books I've read combined, and I've read them all. This book is funny, easy to read, and filled with practical, solid christian advise. Dr. Dobson explains the differences between men and women and teaches basic lessons on communications and co-habitation that every married couple should know. I routinely give this book as gifts to newlywed and engaged couples. I've bought myself several copies because I keep giving them away to friends who have troubled marriages. I pray that God will bless your marriage as you read this book.

Summary: Time doesn't change God's design...
Comment: After reading other reviews of this book I feel compelled to add my two cents. Some say this book presents women in a cowardly and foolish light and that the principals contained in it are outdated; that Dr. Dobson needs to enter the 21st century. However, time doesn't change God's design and plan for males and females. He did, in fact, make us different and no liberal social agenda can change that. What Dobson has to say IS still relevant today and IS valuable to both Christians and non-Christians that are considering marriage. I would highly recommend it as reading prior to the big day.
