{"product_id":"9781511319171","title":"Sacred Cows: The Truth about Divorce and Marriage","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrs. Astro and Danielle Teller know better than most that finding the right partner in life doesn't always happen the first time around. Through their own divorces they learned how widely held cultural assumptions and misinformation that nobody thinks to question—what they refer to as \"sacred cows\"—create unnecessary heartache for people who are already suffering through a terrible time. Do you think, for example, that the divorce rate in the United States is rising? Or that children are harmed by divorce? Most people do, but it turns out that neither of these notions is supported by the data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining the rigor that has established them as leaders in their respective fields along with a dose of good-natured humor, the Tellers ask listeners to take a fresh look at seven common sacred cows: the Holy Cow, the Expert Cow, the Selfish Cow, the Defective Cow, the Innocent Victim Cow, the One True Cow, and the Other Cow. This is not an audiobook that is \"for\" marriage or \"for\" divorce, but \"for\" the freedom to decide how to live most honestly and happily either as part of a couple or a single person.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the same way that Esther Perel's bestselling \u003ci\u003eMating in Captivity\u003c\/i\u003e gave couples a fresh perspective on their married life, so \u003ci\u003eSacred Cows\u003c\/i\u003e invites listeners to question assumptions and conventional wisdom. It offers a smart, insightful, and sympathetic view for those in a marital crisis, marriage counsellors, or anyone looking to gain a fresh perspective on one of our most cherished and misunderstood institutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brilliance Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055657500912,"sku":"9781511319171","price":9.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781511319171_p0.jpg?v=1763727795","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781511319171","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
