In this tour through the various stages of dating, marriage and divorce, the author connects the dots between the various influences on hapless human behaviour that is so ubiquitous in relationships. Cultural norms, evolutionary psychology, statistics, and biology are just some of the forces behind the problems and the possible solutions to the eternal dilemma of the chaos following the marriage vows. Being too serious a subject to be without humour, the author draws upon his own experience with a light, yet informative perspective — the result is to save the reader both sanity and money.
