Description

What makes an intimate relationship truly satisfying?

Is there too much pressure on intimacy to succeed in the modern world?

Do we expect too much from partners? This book tackles such questions by examining the social and psychological forces at play in close relationships, and argues that the forms of modern couple intimacy are more varied and complex than recent accounts would suggest.

In this respect the book reveals how the combined influence of individual, interpersonal and wider social factors create variation in self-disclosure, intimacy games and relationship habits.

By highlighting the way power and control influence the fate of personal relationships, Derek Layder identifies the key ingredients of optimal intimacy as well as those that work to undermine or destroy it.
