Drawing on some 25 years of experience as an educator, a couples' therapist, and a supervisor of couples' therapists, Babits (Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, Manhattan) has developed a framework and a method for reestablishing emotional safety in a troubled partnership; he shares this knowledge in this self-help text for couples working through relationship difficulties. The framework a cluster of interconnected ideas referred to as the "middle ground," which empower partners to negotiate differences, emphasize the positive, see issues from each other's point of view, diffuse anger, and rekindle warmth and love; readers experience the conceptual framework through a series of exercises. The text includes targeted advice for all types of couples: heterosexuals and gays, marrieds, live-ins, couples with children, childless couples, and older couples.
