I just finished this book. I would recommend it to anyone who is married...whether it be for 15 years or 15 days. I have heard some people refer to Dr. Laura as extremely harsh, especially towards women, but I say bravo! I'll be the first to say that sometimes I need a good kick in the pants. Dr. Laura preaches selflessness, respect, service, and love. She basically tells men to be masculine--support your family and provide for them--and she tells women to be feminine--raise your family, support your husband, and create a loving home.
This book is very similar to her other book, The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands (which I also love). It just further illustrates that most successful recipe for a happy, healthy marriage is love, respect, proper gender roles, selflessness, and a sincere concern for one another's well being (much like the church's proclamation on the family in my opinion).
If you read it, let me know what you think...
