When Partners Become Parents The Big Life Change for Couples

When it first appeared in 1992, this book became an instant must-read on the lists of new parents and family studies professionals alike. Its message is just as relevant, just as timely, and perhaps even more important today. As indicated in the new foreword, by John M. Gottman, and in the updates and new afterword provided by the authors, the transition to parenthood remains one of the most challenging periods in adulthood. Readers today will be rewarded, just as earlier readers have been, by the stories reported in the pages of this book and by the wise counsel of the authors who put those stories in context.Cowan, Carolyn P. is the author of 'When Partners Become Parents The Big Life Change for Couples', published 1999 under ISBN 9780805835595 and ISBN 0805835598.
