There is a little statistical data floating around about how much happier and healthier married people are. But the payoff is that they have to work harder to avoid ruts and boredom in life and relationship.
I would cover;
0. WHY are you getting married (good reasons to, reasons not to, looking into common goals and future plans)
1. the myths about married sex
2. the stages of a marriage (incl special attn to the 5-year itch)
3. how to affair-proof your marriage
4. finances
5. keeping your rel. fresh while raising kids
6. planning your future together
7. the couple's social identity
8. lifestyle agreements/similarities/differences: habits, schedules, needs/desires - material, social, emotional
9. COMMUNICATION

Choosing the right partner. And then a long chapter about what couples should talk about, "before" they get married. All this boring little things like, how do you want to live? How do we arrange our daily life and who expects what from whom? If we have kids, what are the other persons ideas of bringing up children? I would spend a few chapter only on this issues and that couples should talk about this little things "before" getting married. Then a chapter would be about, what common goals do we have in our ongoing life? Do the individual dreams fit to the dreams of the other partner or would this result in great disharmony in the long run? What will we do in our free time? Do we have common interests and still complement each other? And then three chapters about good communication and communication and again good communication. Then I would add a self test to find out if it is true love of the "soul" or just passion, sex or having the idea of an easy comfortable life. Love of the soul is the base of a good marriage, but common goals is what keeps a marriage interesting and lively over a long time.

"The greatest science in Heaven and on Earth is the science of LOVE" (BM Teresa).
Many scientists disregard the knowledge of the Bible since it's isn't written in scientific formate. Regardless of this, there is wisdom in the Bible. Archeologists say that human's (primates) have been around 10,000 years. So, every thing that can be done has been done. The Bible teaches the folly of many of ppl's stupid mistakes.
Author, Chirtopher West, has a book called, "The Good News about Sex and Marriage" and it is very easy to read while in depth about subjects.
(Marriage, Chastity, Objectivity, Porno, Oral Sex, Fertility issues, Divorce, ect-ect-ect). His web-site does cover some stuff, but I love the book so much more.

I'm actually no expert on relationships or marriage, but Dr. Phil has already written such a book and I hear it's been pretty well received. I'm sorry that I can't remember the name of his book.

It would be a pamphlet inside it would say "What the hell are you nuts?!" Then list all the statistics of divorce and the financial ramifications of entering into a financial contract FOR LIFE based on emotion.
