Marvellous first aid for couples - Susie Orbach

Good advice on how to navigate those tricky arguments - Mariella Frostrup

If you feel like you have the same arguments with your partner over and over again ... you may be right. And you're not alone: Joanna Harrison believes there are five distinct issues that all couples have to work through if they are going to have a healthy, functioning relationship.

Using sound advice and relatable case studies, she offers practical ideas and imaginative ways to think about ourselves and our partners.

Kind, funny and rooted in real life, this is expert advice that anyone can use - and that everyone in a relationship needs.
