opens up a world of communication

this book opens up a world of communication in all sorts of ways. I'm still figuring out what my love language is. but I have had a better relationship with my family since reading. it's a little slow with the narration. that is my only negative.

This is a wonderful book!

Great book, explains perfectly the difference between the languages and how to apply them. I highly recommend this whether you are experiencing issues or not. This book should accompany every marraige license, and maybe even be taught in a public setting!

A bestseller for a reason!

This book has been revised and also translated into dozens of languages. It’s primary purpose is to help people discover their primary love language and also to learn, and learn to ‘speak’, the primary love languages of partners and spouses. Chapman is from an evangelical background, so he focuses on male-female relationships, but that doesn’t matter. The truth of the work has nothing to do with gender. Highly recommend for anyone who would like better relationships.
