Men Are from Earth, Women Are from Earth is a self-help book for
couples in conflict. Its primary goal is to help couples stop
fighting and start living together cooperatively-like true partners
in life. Toward this end it shows married people how to overcome
their self-defeating, relationship-damaging attitudes and
behaviors, how to identify and prevent the main cause of emotional
disturbance in marriage, and how to win greater cooperation from
their mates. It also teaches couples effective communication and
problem-solving methods-and ways of finding greater pleasure in
married life. Though primarily a self-help book for married
individuals, this book is also designed to support any marital
therapy effort or any type of individual therapy for a married
person who is seeking to improve his or her marriage. It can be
used simply as recommended reading for clients who wish to
facilitate self-improvement in marriage as well as relational
improvement with the spouse, or it can be used as a structured,
step-by-step intervention for distressed couples. Either way, both
the psychoeducational content of this book and the emotional and
interpersonal problem-solving methods it prescribes are likely to
help many unhappily married individuals decisively end the marital
"madness" and create more satisfying relationships with their
partners.
Winning Cooperation from Your Child provides parents and therapists
with a comprehensive, home-based behavioral recovery program for
oppositional, defiant, and aggressive children. In response to the
national epidemic of defiant and aggressive behavior, Kenneth
Wenning offers a range of specific techniques to promote
cooperative behavior in children. This unique book can be used
either as a self-help resource for parents or to support a
collaboration between a parent and a therapist toward a common goal
a child's rapid behavioral recovery. These methods will enable
parents to help defiant children develop "psychological armor" and
behavioral and emotional control when provoked, teased, or
frustrated as well as prevent parents from overreacting or
underreacting to the child's disobedience. The aim is to nurture in
the child the capacity for accurate self-reflection, a prerequisite
for taking responsibility for his or her own actions.
