Book Review

Last weekend a very thoughtful person loaned me "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" by John Gottman.  Thank you very much to both the thoughtful person and the others in the situation in which it was loaned.  You know who you are. :-)

I am not done reading it yet, but very thrilled with the well researched ideas (yes, really!) and the insights it is giving me.  Things are certainly not so dire as i had previously thought.

Gottman's work is referenced in Blink. Much of his analysis is based on the work of Dr Paul Eckman on facial expressions. I haven't read his books but I have done his computer training on micro-expression recognition. Some of his books might be something else to look at, as a companion.

Sorry, Dr Paul Ekman.
