I Love You, Let's Work It Out
David S. Viscott. Simon & Schuster, $17.45 (287pp) ISBN 978-0-671-62531-3
Psychiatrist Viscott, author of How to Live with Another Person and ABC radio personality, here offers advice to men and women of all ages who want permanent relationships. As a means of defining one's character, tests are offered for partners to take singly and together, thus revealing practices that advance or hinder love. There are also case histories dramatizing problems created by a mate's superior achievements; adultery; financial disagreements; unsatisfactory sex; lack of honesty or frank communication, etc. Although practical and sincere, Viscott's suggestions repeat basic principles covered in numerous self-help volumes. First serial to Good Housekeeping and Health Magazine; paperback rights to Pocket Books; Troll Book Club alternate. (September 8)
