Promises and Pitfalls.
This insightful book is for couples either already in or contemplating an intercultural marriage. Dugan Romano examines the impact of cultural differences on marriage and offers practical guidelines for dealing with the complexities involved. Romano suggests that the joys of an intercultural marriage often result as much from overcoming the obstacles as from the adventure of crossing cultures.
Dugan Romano looks at all aspects of intercultural relationships, from the impact that differing male-female roles may have to the problems that illness may cause, to the phases of adjustment that couples have to make and the experience of raising children.
The book discusses:
- raising bicultural children
- handling the "troublespots" in such marriages
- dealing with death and divorce
- experiencing the joys of an intercultural marriage
