There are lots of books out there written about love; some great ones discuss the importance of early secure attachment, and plenty too have been written about relationships and how to make them better. This book is a bit different. Dr. David Daniels, Professor Emeritus Stanford Medical School, brings his personal passion for human development to over 40 years of study as a private-practice psychiatrist (working primarily with couples), a 61-year marriage, and a deep and comprehensive understanding of human temperament and personality proclivities, to the table. Thanks to having studied something called, "the Enneagram," David says, "Of all of the treatment modalities I worked with and tried out across my therapeutic career, nothing came close to helping couples heal their hearts and relax their defenses as much as I witnessed happening when using a comprehensive application of the Enneagram system." Understanding ourselves as well as others -- with acceptance, discernment, curiosity, and wonderment -- in the way the Enneagram precipitates, provides the greatest foundation from which to build healthier, more receptive and more fulfilling relationships. It is our fundamental relationships that sustain our lives, fuel our happiness, and support our greater development and potential. Bringing this book to fruition was the passionate focus of much of David's time, exploration, and thought the last many years of his life. Within in it holds David's endearing understanding of human relationships and his devotion to contributing to a more loving world.
