description: Readers of this innovative two-book set can get their marriage off to a terrific start by Knowing Me, Knowing You. By thoroughly knowing one another--each other's beliefs, pet peeves, and expectations about the endless details regarding family, friends, children, finances, careers, etc.--a couple can discover areas of potential conflict and can then discuss them proactively. This may sound intimidating, but this two-book set makes it easy and fun because the issues are laid out in a multiple-choice quiz. There are no essays and no trick questions--just common sense issues set in a multiple-choice format. All each partner has to do is to check the box that applies to him/her. It's so easy even those who normally avoid counseling will do it! There are two books--one for men and one for women. In 18 chapters, each comprehensive quiz covers topics from faith to family to finances--and includes many points most couples don't think to discuss. The man and woman complete their quizzes independently, and then compare answers to find potential problem areas, which they can then discuss. This easy-to-use book highlights areas where real-life couples clash. When marriage-busting stressors such as poor health or financial difficulties arrive, the couple will be better equipped to deal with the problems. Through the discussions prompted by this book, they will have discovered and developed common values and strategies that will help them to cope with life’s inevitable challenges with unity. (Both books in the shrink-wrapped set are included for the indicated price.)
