Marriage and Common Beliefs

The book ‘Marriage and Common Beliefs,’ authored by Dr. Narges Chimeh and Samira Karmelou, delves into marriage and its psychological aspects. The author states in the introduction: ‘This book has been written to critique and amend common beliefs about marriage. It is suitable for the general public, but we particularly recommend it to two groups: those on the verge of marriage and couples struggling with marital issues.’ One section of this book reads: ‘Choosing a spouse is one of the most important decisions in life. Making the right choice is the fundamental step toward forming a healthy and tension-free family. On the other hand, this critical decision requires personal growth and readiness in physical, cognitive, emotional, and social dimensions.’ The publisher notes about the ‘Psychology and Life’ series, of which this book is a part: ‘Every society has its own culture, laws, shortcomings, and disorders, necessitating a unique set of examinations, understandings, solutions, and treatments. Ghatreh Publishing has collaborated with distinguished Iranian psychiatrists and psychologists to publish a series of books under the title ‘Psychology and Life.’ This book is published by ‘Ghatreh Publishing.’
