The Relationship Handbook

A Simple Guide to Satisfying Relationships - Anniversary Edition

De: Dr. George Pransky PhD

Narrado por: James Pransky

Unlike most relationship counselors, Dr. Pransky doesn't recommend "working" on a relationship. In this book, he challenges everything you thought you knew about how to be happy with your partner. Each chapter exposes a popular but destructive misconception about relationships and provides a new understanding that can give troubled couples the fresh start they need.

Makes a difficult subject simple

Great book! The author makes a difficult subject simple and therefore understandable, bringing hope to the readers.

slow burn!

first chapters are slow but momentum builds as you go. I listened at 1.2x speed.

Good content with poor audio quality

Great content with lots of insights. However the narration could improve and the audio quality was very poor.

Powerfully insightful.

This insightful book delves into the human experience in relationships, offering strategies to strengthen connections by overcoming insecurities and enhancing communication with love and understanding. Loved it.

Narrator

Love the content narrator is somewhat hard to understand. Some words he read were hard to make out. I had to concentrate hard to understand him.

Made a big difference for me

The Relationship Handbook has helped me create harmony in important relationships of mine since pretty much the first couple or chapters. I was holding resentment towards friends and family and I've been able to clear it out, which has had an immediate positive impact in those relationships. It's not a book just for couples, it's ideas serve for all kinds of relationships.

I give 4 stars to the performance because the narrator's pronunciation is slightly sloppy at times and I had to "listen harder" to understand some words. This audiobook would also gain a lot in quality if it was rerecorded in a professional studio, the reverberation shouldn't be there. In spite of all this, the pacing is great, the little pauses between sentences makes it easier for the ideas to sink in.

The book also features several consultation conversations that help substantially to understand the principles. This to me is one of the strongest points of it. Plus, there are some ideas in this book that I heard before but couldn't properly grasp until I read them in the words of the author. All in all, it's an epic book.

The reader isn’t good - content is great

The reader isn’t good - content is great and valuable. The way he reads it, the pauses and his accent and cadence makes it hard to get into it

Subpar narration AND audio quality

Heard great things about the content. Got the audio book for a long drive. Really tough to listen to such bad quality audio.

Additionally to technically low level of audio quality, this is not a professional narrator voice or enunciation, which makes this difficult to listen to even more. Hard work to hear it. The equivalent of a physical book with blurry printing.

Compared to the bar today for audiobooks this is very low quality.
