We’ve all heard the statistic: half of all marriages end in divorce. It’s enough to make many couples quit up when things become tough, believing that this is what everyone else does. But what if it’s not true? What if mending a seemingly damaged relationship is not only doable, but frequently simpler than you think?

Tara Parker-Pope asked herself these questions following her divorce. She turned to some of the finest biologists, neuroscientists, psychologists, and other scientists for the facts on marriage and divorce as an investigative journalist on the health and wellness beat.

Those facts were far more positive and provocative than she had anticipated, and For Better is chock-full of astounding, eye-opening good news. Parker-Pope explains why some relationships work and others don’t; the biology behind why some spouses cheat and others remain faithful; and the greatest diagnostic tools developed by cutting-edge psychologists to determine the likelihood of success in getting married, remaining married, or remarrying. There are quizzes available to help identify possibly harmful hidden attitudes about spouses. There are methods available to demonstrate the influence of routine, new activities and how minor changes may make a big difference. Tara Parker-talent Pope’s is in delving into the science underlying the huge issues that touch our lives on a daily basis and translating that information into recommendations we can utilize.
