Jamais les ruptures conjugales n'ont été aussi nombreuses, et jamais le couple n'a été autant célébré sur l'autel des valeurs contemporaines. Contradiction ? Nullement. C'est justement parce que l'on attend beaucoup du couple qu'il est devenu si difficile à construire. Aujourd'hui, on ne se satisfait plus d'un demi-bonheur. Ce qui hier encore allait de soi est désormais systématiquement mis en question. Ce livre fait le point sur les différents aspects de la vie en couple. Il nous permet de connaître les mystères du fonctionnement conjugal à l'heure où, depuis une génération au moins, celui-ci évolue très rapidement. Amour, choix du conjoint, étapes du cycle conjugal, gestion de l'insatisfaction et des attentes réciproques, rôles féminins et masculins : les nouvelles règles de la vie à deux.

En dépit de profondes mutations s'enchaînant à un rythme accéléré, le couple demeure, en 2017, un noyau de l'organisation de la vie personnelle et sociale. En misant sur une analyse des multiples déterminants du fonctionnement conjugal, les auteurs de ce collectif proposent un tour d'horizon détaillé des réponses scientifiques contemporaines aux principales questions qui se posent en matière de psychologie du couple. Pour ce faire, ils vont au-delà des préjugés et des dogmes. En effet, ils sont d'avis que certaines connaissances - qui sont ici remises en question, retravaillées, clarifiées et contestées à la lumière de faits - constituent un antidote de choix aux visions simplifiées, trop optimistes ou trop pessimistes, de l'organisation de la vie de couple. Cette analyse approfondie offre un éclairage scientifique sur les fondements et concepts théoriques de la relation de couple, sur son développement, sur les processus relationnels sous-jacents au fonctionnement conjugal optimal, ainsi que sur les méthodes de recherche et d'intervention auprès des couples. En nourrissant la réflexion sur un ensemble d'enjeux relationnels complexes, cet ouvrage saura plaire à tout professionnel de la psychologie du couple.

"From the Man Booker Prize-winning author of The Sea and The Blue Guitar--a dazzling new novel that extends the story of Isabel Archer, the heroine of Henry James's The Portrait of a Lady, into unexpected (and completely stand-alone) territory. Isabel Archer is a young American woman, swept off to Europe in the late nineteenth century by an aunt who hopes to round out the impetuous but naive girl's experience of the world. When Isabel comes into a large, unexpected inheritance, she is finagled into a marriage with the charming, penniless, and--as Isabel finds out too late--cruel and deceitful Gilbert Osmond, whose connection to a certain Madame Merle is suspiciously intimate. On a trip to England to visit her cousin Ralph Touchett on his deathbed, Isabel is offered a chance to free herself from the marriage, but nonetheless chooses to return to Italy. Banville follows James's story line to this point, but Mrs. Osmond is thoroughly Banville's own: the narrative inventiveness; the lyrical precision and surprise of his language; the layers of emotional and psychological intensity; the subtle, dark humor. And when Isabel arrives in Italy--along with someone else!--the novel takes off in directions that James himself would be thrilled to follow"--

Graham Cavanaugh's second wife, Audra, is everything his first wife was not. She considers herself privileged to live in the age of the hair towel, talks non-stop through her epidural, labour and delivery, invites the doorman to move in and the eccentric members of their son's Origami Club to Thanksgiving. She is charming and spontaneous and fun but life with her can be exhausting. In the midst of the day-to-day difficulties and delights of marriage and raising a child with Asperger's, his first wife, Elspeth, reenters Graham's life. Former spouses are hard to categorize, are they friends, enemies, old flames, or just people who know you really, really well? Graham starts to wonder: How can anyone love two such different women? Did he make the right choice? Is there a right choice?
