Both our physical heart and our intimate relationships are under siege. Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the world, and 4 out of 5 relationships would have experienced difficulty in the past 5-7 years. Sadly people are coming to believe that relationships are too difficult to navigate over the longer term. Like heart disease, the risk factors impacting on the health of your relationship are well understood. Potential damage - and even the death of your relationship - can be avoided. Cardiology is the study of the heart. It helps us understand how we can look after our hearts ad minimise the risk of disease. It allows us to identify when our heart is not functioning well, and what steps we need to take to restore it to health. Similarly, this book will help you to understand your relationship, recognise risk factors and any areas of poor health, and guide you in effective remedial action.
