About this book
For many today, marriage is a nice thing, but not necessary. I . . . Do? is a book to help you reconsider the central importance of marriage, not simply for the couples involved, but for all of us. Plenty of research suggests that a good marriage encourages health, wellness, and happiness and that the goodness of marriage extends into our communities. To this, the retort comes quickly--well that's the result of a good marriage. Yet instead of nurturing good marriages, we are throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Marriage is not the solution to every problem. It remains, however, an ideal to which we can aspire.
This book connects the dots between statistics, public policy problems, and people's experiences. A better understanding of the attributes of marriage allows each one of us to invest deeper meaning into our relationships as well as enhancing and creating stronger communities. The authors equip readers with the language and logic of marriage, using secular research. By imagining that marriage still matters, we can learn to properly support and nurture marriage, for the good of the world.
