Summary

Brings the cutting edge of relationship therapy to the mass market. Debunks superficial theories about communication styles and gender roles and gets to the real reason so many relationships are in trouble: the misuse of power. Making Love, Playing Power reveals how gender, race, sexual orientation and money set the foundation for personal power and how power itself drives conflicts. Dolon Del Vecchio offers new and provocative principles of love, memorable case examples and action steps that can help readers make changes to bring lasting love.
