How many ways are there to say “I’m sorry?” Well, it
depends on your language of apology.
Just as you have a different love language, you also hear and
express the words and gestures of apology in a different language.
Best-selling author Gary Chapman has teamed with counselor
Jennifer Thomas to explore the different languages of apology and
reach a whole new audience with this easy to follow and quickly
applicable communication tool.

Summary: Wonderful Book!
Comment: We are teaching this book in our Young Married class and I think it is a wonderful book. Many in the class have said the knowledge in the book is invaluable. I can't recommend this book enough. All couples should read this book...

Summary: Must Read
Comment: Everyone has been wronged and done done wrong to others. Appoligising is not being weak. It is admitting that we are human and make mistakes. This book helped me to show that I am truely sorry for what I have done. It showed me how to let the other person know that I am sincere. It also helped to truely forgive.

Summary: Not Love Languages...
Comment: This book did not live up to my expectations after reading "The Five Love Languages". I would rate it a 6 on a scale of 10 positive. It used far too many illustrations to make the point and made reading it more a labor than a joy. It could have been published in fewer pages and carried greater impact because the points are valid.

Summary: Book Bargains
Comment: Along the same lines of the other books by Gary Chapman, The Five Languages of Apology takes a relational issue and then helps the reader see if from different perspectives. For this book Chapman teamed up with psychologist Jennifer Thomas to discuss a persons "apology language" - that is what an individual believes represents a real apology. The authors stress needing to know the "language" of the person you are apologizing to in order for the apology to be effective.
This book really made me think. When I apologize for something I usually just want to get it over with as quick and painlessly as possible; I rarely think of the type of apology the offended party needs. Needless to say, my perspective is changed after reading this book.
I highly recommend this book. It will improve your relationships.

Summary: Five Languages of Apology
Comment: The Five Languages of Apologies has a lot of interesting insights both into the importance of apologies and how to make one effective with whom you're apologizing to. My only misgiving is that it is much too long for the topic; the book drags on and on about a topic that I think could've been covered in a pamphlet. Although the idea that people have different forms of apology that reach them is interesting, once the idea is gotten across, it is pretty common sense; this book tries to make a science out of it which is a bit silly. They could've written this book at least half the size it is now.
