'The psychologist's guide to getting on with people' - The Times
'Brilliantly empowering and truly life-changing ... a must-read for improving relationships.' - Gwyneth Paltrow
'Utterly fantastic. Read immediately.' - Claudia Winkleman
Do you want to get on with people better?
Having good relationships – from partners and family to your friends or colleagues – is the key to thriving. Research shows it impacts your health, well-being, financial security and happiness. But how do you get there?
Leading psychologist Janet Reibstein shows you step by step how to 'learn' relationships. By practising four essential skills, you can master how to communicate clearly, develop empathy and forge meaningful connections. You'll also learn how to make crucial repairs when things go wrong, so even the most difficult interaction can be a positive one.
Consider this your personal guidebook to more productive and satisfying relationships in every aspect of your life.
