{"product_id":"the-secrets-of-happily-married-women-isbn-9780470401804","title":"The Secrets of Happily Married Women","description":"From the authors of the best-selling \u003ci\u003eThe Secrets of Happily Married Men\u003c\/i\u003e comes the much-anticipated follow-up book \u003ci\u003eThe Secrets of Happily Married Women\u003c\/i\u003e. In their first book, Dr. Haltzman and his coauthor Theresa Foy DiGeronmio outlined a recipe for men about growing a happy marriage: treat marriage with the same sense of purpose, resolve, and single-minded devotion that they have for their job. Although that workplace formula works well for men, an entirely different set of criteria resonate with women.  \u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Secrets of Happily Married\u003c\/i\u003e Women, Dr. Haltzman tells us stories from real women who are happy in their relationships. These women know how to get more out of their partners by doing less, by not trying so hard to make men perfect, not dragging them to couples therapy, not expecting them to think or behave like a woman. These are women from Dr. Haltzman's clinical practice and culled from thousands of contributors to his Web site \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.HappilyMarriedWomen.com\"\u003ewww.HappilyMarriedWomen.com\u003c\/a\u003e. They have learned to understand how men really work and tap into men's powerful hard-wired desire to please women and \"be a better man.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
