Review by Library Journal Review

This much-needed book by two licensed clinical psychologists empathetically guides readers through a partner's infidelity. Using case studies and sound psychological concepts, Solomon and Teagno detail the reasons why long-term love relationships (LTLR) succeed or fail, what causes infidelity, and how to build a true LTLR, should that be in everyone's best interest. The authors describe the three intimacies necessary in an LTLRAself-intimacy, conflict intimacy, and affection intimacyAas well as the three emotions that cause infidelityAfear, loneliness, and anger. Appendixes contain exercises to facilitate emotional self-awareness and communication. Invaluable to those suffering from betrayal and wondering where to turn; highly recommended for all public libraries. (c) Copyright 2010.
