Marriage has been invariably the most common cross-cultural phenomenon, symbolizing lifelong companionship and functioning as a structural component of the society. One may argue about marriage and what it has come to become in the current context to be multifaceted and complex in terms of socio-economic and cultural variations across the globe. Many people argue the necessity and the outcomes of this institution. To say the least it is having a spectrum more colored than the artists color palate and more nuanced than the visible spectrum and beyond the comprehension of common men and women. It is important to note that this book brings about a well thought of and organized view of human behavior psychology and how they shape the reality of marriage. The author here has tried to compose and story tell across the various aspects of life and how it shapes human behavior related to the social understanding. A happy marriage is a universal goal but goal attainment comes with unforeseen circumstances and factors that are beyond control. The author emphasizes not only in the focus of finding a good husband or wife but also becoming one. The book goes through the chapters that are well defined and reads comfortably also has an insight provoking monologues that will sometimes require the readers to challenge their thought process and invoke some introspection and reflections into one's own behaviors and expectations. Marriage therefore brings more beyond just the intense emotional intimacy embraces the physical closeness and invariably the sexual intimacy. A careful observation of marriage through perspectives and understanding, emotion and acceptance can lead to a possibility of a “open & free marriage”.
