Description
Dr. Gordon Livingston,a physician of the human heart, a philosopher of human psychology,offers an urgently needed meditation on who best (and who best not ) to love. As in his previous books, Dr. Livingston demonstrates an unerring sense of what is important, providing readers with a much-needed alternative to the trial-and-error learning that makes wisdom such an expensive commodity.
Reviews / Votes
Palm Beach Post, 12/9/10 "A how-to on finding lasting love." WomanAroundTown.com, 2/6/11 "There's a wealth of information not only about romance, but about many of the crucial decisions we make about our relationships." InfoDad.com, 2/10/11 "Good-natured and homily-filled...Livingston does have some plainspoken, sensible ideas about love and relationships. The best part of his book is the middle, in which he enumerates the virtues of 'People to Cherish'...Worthwhile for many readers." Blogcritics.org, 2/14/11"Dr. Livingston masterfully explains the different types of character and personality traits. In addition, he shows us how to recognize some of the character traits that may be damaging to compatibility and long-lasting happiness...It is a book that must read by individuals who are just about to get married or looking for a new spouse after a painful divorce." Tucson Citizen, 2/13/11"[Livingston's] latest book reminds us that we're defined by those with whom we spend the majority of our time. As basic as that seems, few of us fully comprehend the importance of how we should choose our partner." Spirituality & Practice "Enlightening." Internet Review of Books, 2/23/11More details
