Being a follow-up to his bestselling book Life Strategies, Oprah acolyte Phillip C. McGraw, Ph.D., moves from aiding the aimless individual to coaching the disconnected couple. McGraw has distilled his more than two decades of counseling experience into a seven-step strategy he calls "Relationship Rescue.""I'm ready to kick a hole in the wall of the pain-ridden, unhappy maze you've gotten yourself into, and offer you clear usage of action-oriented answers and instructions on what you should do to have what you want," says Dr. Phil. His aim is to expose and eliminate the saboteurs that cause senseless harm to already-fragile marriages, and, as an emotional root canal, to displace them with values he says provide excellent results. If you follow Dr. Phil's strategy, he'll lead you on an accurate journey to uncover your heart and then share it with your partner within taking the "risk of intimacy."Dr. Phil leads you to definitely "reconnect with your core" in the first five steps of his seven-step strategy. By no means an instant fix, there are in-depth and rigorous questionnaires, surveys, tests, and profiles that require a "brutally candid" mindset, with such fill-in-the-blanks as "List five things that today would make you fall out of love with your partner." With this internal work accomplished, you'll then move to reconnecting with your partner during a two-week, half-hour-a-day short course. Being a "dyad," you as well as your cherished one take turns giving monologues on matters such as "The best positive thing I took away from my mother and father's relationship was..."After the "reconnection" has been established, Dr. Phil says the work shifts to a management role, as relationships are always a work in progress. Dr. Phil humorously refers to his own marriage throughout the book, sharing his mishaps and victories in understanding how to accept and revel in what he sees as fundamental but complementary dissimilarities between women and men. --John Youngs
