After reading the The Relationship Cure by John Gottman, write a 600-word double-spaced critical review of the book. Your paper should consist of four elements:
(a) summary of the book,
(b) strengths and weaknesses of the text,
(c) what you learned, and finally
(d) how the text might be helpful in your relationships by demonstrating practical applications of the material. Remember that a critical review is more than a summary or interpretation of what an author says. It is your evaluation of the author’s work, bringing your own experiences, beliefs, and discoveries—supported by argument and evidence—into the essay.
A critical review makes a clear argument and presents it carefully. Successful critical reviews are typically crafted in response to a good critical question, which requires evaluative judgment as an answer.
** Background info for (d)**
Hello, I have a girlfriend that I was in a relationship with for 6 years. My girlfriend and I have been in a long-distance relationship for 3 years. We had conflicts at first but now, we do not argue about unnecessary things such as not answering the text, etc. There is no big issue between us. Maybe the difference in religion is the biggest obstacle for us to overcome. Thank you
