This book is for couples or singles who are tired of both pop-psych relationship nostrums and tough-talk TV marriage pundits. Written by Tara Parker-Pope, the investigative journalist keeper of the New York Times "Well" Blog, For Better searches for answers about human compatibility in science, not intuition. Tapping into the findings of psychologists, biologists, and neuroscientists, Parker-Pope shows that worries about the likelihood of sexual infidelity and divorce are often overblown and that success can be achieved by pairs willing to make the effort. An informed primer for spouses and singles on the lookout.
