Editorial Reviews

Father Albert's approach, drawn from his counseling experience, is straightforward, well organized and supportive. The seven paths include "building solid foundations," respect, clear expectations, honesty and communication. Readers may get a slight feeling that the Miami-based priest and TV host is telling them what to believe or what is right, rather than giving tools to explore their own approaches to relationships. Some nuggets, however, will help identify a potentially compatible type of person and avoid typical complications. (Jan. 3) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.

Publishers Weekly

Father Cuti , a Roman Catholic priest and host of both television (Change Your Life with Father Albert; American Life) and radio programs (Direct Line with Father Albert), cuts through the jargon to help couples work through inevitable difficulties and keep their relationships alive. He offers seven instructions for doing so: build a solid foundation, respect each another, clarify expectations, be honest, communicate, learn to accept differences, and make a commitment to growth and maturity. With warmth and compassion, he talks about nitty-gritty issues like dealing with jealousy and developing autonomy. One of the best books of its kind; highly recommended for all libraries. Recommended for spiritual or New Age readers. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
