In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Marcia Millman reveals that women's romantic relationships are enacted through seven basic love stories. Based on a decades worth of research and interviews, her popular course on romantic love at UC Santa Cruz, and examples from films and books, she identifies these stories, which are reenactments of early experiences. She also shows how the success or failure of each is determined by unconscious choices. By learning to recognize her own pattern, a woman can understand its hidden meaning and source and avoid potential heartache. Shattering the popular myth that most romantic problems are caused by pervasive low self-esteem or miscommunication, this essential book can help anyone succeed in finding a satisfying, lasting relationship.Millman, Marcia is the author of 'The Seven Stories of Love: How to Recognize Your Own Pattern of Love--and Choose Your Happy Ending' with ISBN 9780060007867 and ISBN 0060007869.
