I think you are getting good advice and I won't rehash it. The one thing I would add is that I was in the same spot as you a year or so ago (read the book and knew it would help my wife). She too read the first chapter and she even said how much it was like us and how great it was. Then...nothing...and more nothing...dust on the book...still on her nightstand...more dust...
Anyway, she still hasn't read it, despite MANY suggestions, R talks, promises, etc. I'm convinced if the book was arranged in the format of a magazine with a bunch of ads thrown in (my imagination is full of ideas for advertisers) she would read it. But truthfully, I suspect the reason she hasn't, and why many LD wives won't, is because the truth hurts and it is easier to stay in denial than it is to confront it.
Ultimately, she has to decide on her own to read it.
