Coles How to Argue Without Damage: The Difference Between Conflict and Harm at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Why do some couples emerge from arguments stronger, while others are torn apart? The answer isn't found in whether they fight, but how. This investigation begins in a 1970s psychology lab, where researchers first observed the hidden anatomy of conflict, tracking every heartbeat and micro-expression to decode the language of love and war. Dr. Pia Sandoval builds on this foundational science, including John Gottman's landmark 1992 study, to illuminate the critical difference between healthy conflict and genuine harm. The book reveals the "Four Horsemen"—Criticism, Defensiveness, Contempt, and Stonewalling—and explains how they push a couple across the invisible "Harm Threshold," causing cumulative damage to the relationship's very structure. Through vivid case studies and actionable insights, readers learn to identify their own physiological responses to conflict and master the art of repair. This book is not about avoiding fights; it's about building a relationship strong enough to withstand them. Discover the tools to argue without damage and forge a bond that flexes under pressure instead of breaking.
