Barry and Emily McCarthy, realists in today's world (despite a
36-year first marriage), present the inevitable sequel to Getting
It Right the First Time. In Getting It Right This Time, we pick up
when the lessons offered in the first book didn't quite hit home,
and the romance, myth, and wonder in the passionate love, sex, and
intimacy didn't develop into a solid foundation for marriage. What
went wrong, what can we learn from the mistakes of a first
marriage, and how can we move on to start over? In the authors' own
words, there are two crucial learnings from a divorce. The first is
to identify vulnerabilities and traps, so they do not control your
life and the potential of a subsequent marriage. The second is the
commitment to create a second marriage and family which is
satisfying and stable. Following the practical style of Getting It
Right the First Time, this book contains information, guidelines,
case studies, and exercises, useable individually or as a couple.
Chapters are self-contained, stand-alone units focused on topics
such as: * intimacy and sexuality * step-parenting * dealing with
ex-spouses * marrying after 50 * having a child in a second
marriage. two Routledge books, the authors have again combined
empirical research and experience in practice and therapy with
insight and sensitivity to present a unique approach at forming a
second marriage. The text has two central focuses: first, divorce
is not a failing, but rather a courageous act that can improve your
life, and second, that re-marriage is an important choice, and one
that should be carefully considered - but one that can lead to a
successful, rewarding, and loving second chance. * authoritative *
contains questionnaires and self-help activities * author known to
booksellers, and available for publicity * the McCarthys' earlier
book, Getting It Right the First Time, has sold nearly 3,000 copies
since its publication in 2004.
