[An] engrossing investigation into enduring marriage...unexpectedly candid -<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> Scarf is good...a probing but tactful questioner, an active listener, and even, on occasion, a quasi-therapist. -<i>The Washington Post</i> A journalistic book...the clearest message, both from the research and the couples, is upbeat. -<i>The Economist</i> Scarf wonderfully captures those insights that give meaning and joy to life even as the clock ticks. -Jerome Groopman, M.D., author of <i>How Doctors Think</i>
