I have not read it (because our marriage was too far gone to try to fix it). But I have heard that this technique has worked miracles in relationships. My therapist told me that a couple long sessions with the author saved her own marriage (they actually travelled to the author's city for sessions).

Our MC recommended it, too. I listened to half of it but had to return it to the library. I don't remember specifically what it said, but I hated returning it because it was helpful. This was either before dday when I was searching for ways to fix our marriage (I could not pinpoint what was wrong with us!! Of course it was because WH was GONE from the M in the A!), or it was shortly after dday 22 months ago. We just ordered the book and are waiting for it to arrive. MC says it is best read a bit at a time because it is deep and we would benefit if we take time to process it.

is it about attachment and that when we fight it's about our fear of not being attached to someone?

I read it and thought it was excellent. It was great at not only identifying the faulty relationship patterns, but at suggesting how to form a better relationship.
