Summary: Essential Reading for the 21st Century
Comment: This book should be required reading for anyone who thinks they "know" the opposite sex - an essential tool for understanding each other. Many members of each sex wander through life deploring the behavior of each other needlessly and, usually, quite ignorantly. This book does a wonderful job exploring the differences in the sexes in a funny, very entertaining manner.

Another reviewer is entirely correct about her/his comments regrading the book's being in contravention with so-called "Political Correctness." No doubt one of the goals of the authors was to analyze and explain the sexes from a behavoiral and biological perspective, rather than a political one.

Another reviewer evidently found the book "biased." This point is arguable, but of the many men and women I know who have read this book at my suggestion, none have agreed and niether do I. I suggest that one who finishes this book with such a conclusion does so only by possessing the belief prior to reading the first page.

All in all the book is very enjoyable, educational, and really leaves one with a sense of appreciation for the differences between the sexes. The 21st Century is an excellent time for a better understanding of one another, and this book is a wonderful point from which to start.

Summary: why do people give average review for great books?
Comment: I always am interested in How Review works. I think there is some sort of "self selection process choice" in how people review books. I often find the most best sellers books are not very well reviewed.

This is a good book, explaining the difference between how men and women see things and how genetically they are different. Allan and Barbara make a good living out of the book, it is traslated to 31 languages and sold for more than 3 million copies.

Easy to read, and fun with a lot of witty quotes. Yes, there are several repetitions throughout but any other books always bear repetitions!

It reminds me of the what Oscar to films do: Great Review, but not box office, and other Advertising Awards (great ads, no selling), I love 007 series since i was a kid, and i never understand why they never get Oscars. ;-).

So, if you want great review books, look for the great review books (you might not like it!), but if you want to enjoy reading insighful difference between men and women, get this book and enjoy it during a nice sunny weekends.

Summary: Basically a good book
Comment: I enjoyed this book. I would have preferred a little more science, with fewer attempts at humour where it wasn't needed. Also, I think it was less 'useful' than just interesting. I can't understand the negative reaction from so many people, which seems over the top and defensive. I found this book interesting and enlightening - I just would have preferred it to be more straight-faced.
