Book Overview
Gifts from the Heart helps students learn, practice, and improve ten fundamental communication skills needed for any long-term relationship. Each skill is presented as a "gift" students give rather than as a behavior they implement--empowering students to participate more fully in their relationships. Engaging opening stories place the concepts and skills in a real-world context. With a conversational and student-friendly writing style, each chapter focuses on one essential communication skill that can dramatically enhance students' connections with their romantic partners, family members, and friends. Application-oriented and jargon-free, Gifts from the Heart is grounded in specific, manageable, and directed activities designed to immediately enhance relationships. Includes memorable acronyms, Guidelines, and Personal Explorations and Practice Giving Exercises. Instructor's Manual and Test Bank available.

A good read, captivating, and effective!

I purchased this book as required reading for my listening college course. It is one of the most touching books I will probably ever read throughout my college career. Fujishin has really broken down what it means to be loving in relationships and how. The short story he provides at the beginning of each chapter with some of his own life experiences with relationships really opens your eyes to how useful the content of each chapter is that you are about to embark on. This is the first "self-help" book I have ever read, and I have to say while reading I applied some of the principles from the text and saw improvement in my somewhat poor communication skills with my partner. This book is a definite keeper, it won't be something you will throw out anytime soon, the skills taught in this book are so vital to those who want to maintain a strong relationship with their loved ones.
wonderful advice
