Power of Discord (Relationships)
Why the Ups and Downs of Relationships Are the Secret to Building Intimacy, Resilience, and Trust Dr. Tronick was one of the first researchers to show that babies are profoundly affected by their parents' emotions and behavior via "The Still-Face Experiment." His work, which brought about a foundational shift in our understanding of human development, shows that our highly evolved sense of self makes us separate, yet our survival depends on connection. And so we approximate, iteratively learning about one another's desires and intentions, and gaining confidence in the process as we correct the mistakes and misunderstandings that arise.

Ready (Stay or Leave Relationship)
How To Know When To Go And When To Stay Do we stay in what we know? Or is it the right time to leave and make a change? In more than 50 years as a psychotherapist David Richo has been asked versions of this question more than any other. In Ready, he shares the deep wisdom we need to make these decisions—and feel confident in following through. The book looks at the mystery of timing, why we stay too long, why we leave too soon, and what it feels like when the timing is right. Richo shows that readiness is about more than just making a choice. Being ready means we understand ourselves deeply—we are prepared to take action (and staying is an action!), and we are equipped with what it takes to follow through. Filled with relatable stories and helpful practices, including meditation, self-inquiry, journaling, and affirmations, Ready helps us understand our own perfect timing to stay or to go.

Science of Trust
Emotional Attunement for Couples In this new work, Dr. Gottman presents his newest findings on trust, trustworthiness and betrayal in a breakthrough approach to understanding and helping couples. Based upon empirical data from five studies across the life course, Gottman reveals the dynamics in everyday couples’ interactions that either build or erode trust. And there are surprising results. For example, the relationship process that dissolves trust has nothing to do with the process that finally ends in betrayal - they are two separate processes. Most important, Gottman shows clinicians how to block the avalanche towards betrayal by teaching clients the fine art of emotional attunement, and if trust has already fallen prey to poor relationship skills or betrayal, how to reconstitute trust and renew commitment.
