Summary: Great Book, Good Points
Comment: I heard about this book and decided to check it out at the library. I really enjoyed it. This book is easy to read, insightful and funny. There are good tips, mostly common sense stuff, that are organized in a manner that will help everyone understand the opposite sex a little better. For the most part, though, the books is motvational and interesting. I bought my own copy and refer to it often. Well worth the read.

Summary: Enlightening
Comment: I am a skeptic and I usually do not like relationship self help books, but this one offers such practical advice, and is such a fun and easy read that I was immediately sold.
Rather than telling men and women how they should act/what games they should play, Gray just offers some observations about how men and women ARE -- ie Men are like rubber bands -- they don't pull away because they are manipulative or control freaks, rather it is just the way they are programmed. If you leave them alone, they'll bounce back. This is the kind of insight I could have used in my twenties. Now a just-divorced thirtysomething who has jumped back into the dating scene ("Meeting, Mating and Cheating" by author Orr is another book I highly recommend for a true picture of the online dating world) I am finding John Gray's book a useful resource that helps me keep my head together, and stay cool through the process. I think John Gray is brilliant and I am sure he has saved many relationships.

Summary: All that is true, but....
Comment: the truth is the sad one. I found that author made great, insightful observations, and I'll be using this book as a guide to dating (amongs some others, like "The Rules", etc). I'm a foreigner who immigrated to the United States; after reading this book and realizing that this is the true state of male/female relationships in this country (yes, this way is specific to the US and, may be, Western Europe; things are not this way in other places--men/women are way more open, sincere, spontaneous, emotional, etc overseas)--I should say, after reading this book: I'm not surprised that so many people in the US turn to homosexual relationships. When relations with the opposite gender become so deprived of fun, governed by the rules, so artificial, fake, stressful, when a date is "like a job interview", etc: one might rather chose to be gay, and understandably!
