This book gave me a lot to think about in regards to how I act and react in relation to other people. Had never heard of attachment theory before reading this book, and am now intrigued enough that I want to read more about this theory.
This book filled me with optimism. The communication strategies and tools were simple but life changing!

This is a great book that focuses on creating a couple bubble with your partner, and maintaining it through shared responsibility. I'd recommend this for any couple who wants to build a better foundation in their relationship, and strengthen their love bond.
Very helpful in understanding myself and my relationship.
I've loved attachment theory for a long time, but I've yet to find (until NOW) a book that really explains it in a great way. Sue Johnson is the best trainer for therapists, but I don't particularly like her books for the layperson. And a lot of the books tend to be critical of one or more of the attachment styles. And all of them use the terms "insecurely" attached or "avoidantly" attached - and let's face it, who wants to CLAIM those labels?? They're pejorative and make me seem flawed! I just love love love Tatkin's way of explaining attachment styles. Not only does he use different labels of anchors, islands and waves, but he does a great job of not making any of them seem horrible or flawed. In his mind, they all make perfect sense based on our experiences. And they are all workable as long as we become experts on our partners. This book is a great blend of neuroscience and attachment theory, but laid out in a way that anyone - and I mean anyone - can understand and put into practice. Highly recommend for anyone in a relationship.
