Summary
Contemporary relationships are in a state of rapid evolution. These changes can and should empower people with the opportunity to develop partnerships based on their own sexualities, understandings, and agreements. This makes it possible to create what Kenneth Haslam, founder of the Kinsey Institute's Polyamory Archive, has called designer relationships. The possibilities are limitless, and thinking about a partnership as something people can craft allows for flexibility and change. Relationships can open and close or have varying degrees and kinds of openness as circumstances demand. In the context of a designer relationship, decisions are made mutually, consciously, and deliberately. Best-selling authors and relationship experts Patricia Johnson and Mark A. Michaels are exemplars of this life choice, and have studied polyamory for over 20 years.

Thought provoking and interesting.
Really useful overview of the choices and approaches available today in the sphere of relationships. Good insight and instruction with emphasis on kindness and ethics. Recommended for those questioning the 'norm'.

not really about, what the titles about
to me this is more why the history and statistic tells us that all censensual relationship structures are valid, than a book about "designer relationships" honestly it also feels like this should have come with a warning that it is a companion to their other book.
several times they talk as if you've read it, which I have not.
there's value in this book, but one needs to dig past the endless lists, references to other books and tales of the past.
I would recommend this book, but not if it is the only one you'll read on nonmonogamy. I would prob recommend it as the third on a list of books to read about nonmonogamy.
