More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
The best-selling author of Personality Plus and Personality Plus for Parents now shows couples how to apply the personality principles that have made Florence so popular. Husbands and wives will understand why they act the way they do and how they can best respond to each other. Personality Plus for Couples gives husbands and wives: a personality profile test to identify their personality types; the trademark characteristics of each personality type; ways to resolve hot conflicts that arise between spouses; what to expect if you marry someone of the same type, someone of the opposite type, or someone with a compatible personality type. Littauer offers pages of stories and practical insight about how to approach each personality differently. When husbands and wives care enough to understand what makes the other tick, they can celebrate each other's individuality and build a marriage that lasts.

Must-read for Couples - Great Insight!
4 Dec 2003
Format:Paperback
I'm a bonafide fan of Florence Littauer. After reading Personality Plus and finding out a lot about myself, I decided to read this book and get some insight regarding my relationship with my hubby.
We've known each other for over 30 years, though we've only been married about half that, yet this book showed me things about my husband that I didn't recognize before (or didn't want to see!).
My husband's personality has a lot of Peaceful Phlegmatic, with some Perfect Melancholy and a smattering of the other two. Reading this book helped me to see why some of our (ahem) 'discussions' went the way that they did. There's great info here for anyone who would like to understand their partner's personality and how it relates to their own.
I definately recommend this book to couples, as it's a great way to find ways to relate to each other differently without pointing fingers or laying blame. This book, as all of Florence's are, is affirming and positive, and even a little humourous. No heavy treatment of a potentially 'serious' subject here, you'll be entertained as well as educated and have some real 'aha' moments.
Get this book and I highly recommend the 'Personality Plus - How to Understand Others by Understanding Yourself' book as well. They'll become well-used manuals in your relationship library.

Life-changing material
4 Mar 2006
Format:Paperback
I have been a student of Florence and Fred Littauer for more than fifteen years--when I first stumbled onto "Personality Plus". Understanding the Personalities has been the single greatest life-changing tool I have ever found. Our once "shaky" marriage now flourishes because we understand and appreciate each other's unique God-given personality--both the strengths and the weaknesses. We now travel and work together 24/7, and love every minute we are together. We are successful bacause we have learned to operate more in our individual strengths, while striving to compensate for each other's weaknesses, now that we understand them. If you are interested in improving the quality of your relationship, and understanding more about yourself and your mate, this is a must-read!

Many years later!!!
27 Sep 2007
Format:Paperback
My marriage was in a very rough place, in fact I was planning to divorce, when a friend introduced me to Florence Littauer's books.
My husband irritated me, everything about him had begun to rub me the wrong way. I felt like nothing would ever change, and it was hopeless. This book was instrumental in helping me understand why we were so different, and why he acted and behaved the way he did. I am Choleric with some melancholy, and he is Phlegmatic with some melancholy. It showed me my own strengths and weaknesses, and how to understand, accept, and appreciate my husband's strengths and weaknesses.
In the end it helped us both to communicate better and enjoy each other more. Now, over a decade later, we are still together and stronger than ever. The principles still apply, and we joke that his "melancholy is showing" or that I'm "being Choleric".
I also found it helped me to better understand my relationships outside of marriage too- including my children's personalities and quirks.
I recommend this book regularly to other couples who are looking to improve their marriages, need to improve communication, and want to understand each other better, and have given copies as wedding gifts.
