In The Secrets of Happy Families, New York Times bestselling author Bruce Feiler has drawn up a blueprint for modern families -- a new approach to family dynamics, inspired by cutting-edge techniques gathered from experts in the disciplines of science, business, sports, and the military. From smartphones to social media, we live in an age of digital distractions, where we Google everything and parents even text their kids to come downstairs for dinner. In The Secrets of Happy Families, Bruce Feiler, the New York Times bestselling author and father, offers an antidote to our increasing disconnect, reminding us of the positive emotional connections that tie successful families together. Scholars have recently revolutionized our understanding of why families succeed and how every family can improve. From interviewing these scholars and the happy families they study to running a white tablecloth experiment to promote family dinners, and from visiting a high-end sex spa for couples to going backstage on the ABC hit series "Modern Family", Feiler explains the building blocks of a successful family life and creates a toolbox for the happy family by sharing expert advice and fun facts. The result is a funny and thought-provoking playbook for contemporary families, with more than 200 useful strategies, including: the right way to have family dinner, what your mother never told you about sex (but should have), and why you should always have two women present in difficult conversations... Timely, compassionate, and filled with practical tips and wise advice, Bruce Feiler's The Secrets of Happy Families should be required reading for all parents.
