5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent,really funny & True, 25 Oct 2001
This review is from: Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps: How We're Different and What to Do about It (Paperback)
This book hits the nail on the head for all those women out there that can't understand why men don't understand us and for all those men why you find us all so complicated. I laughed from the minute I started to read this book it is light hearted but would help couples worldwide to understand why things seemed not to be going as they thought there relationships would. The answers are so obvious that they are probably there all the time, love is a blinker thing sometimes. This book helps clarify things in a lighthearted and funny way. An excellent read for mis-understoods everywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars A sort of Australian Mars/Venus book., 11 April 2000
By John Peter O'connor - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The authors start from two straightforward premises:

Men and women are very different in the way that they act, react, think and feel.

These differences are the inevitable consequence of our biology.

The first of these is a lot less controversial than the second and, perhaps the book would have ruffled fewer feathers if the authors had stuck to the first premise. However, the caveman-cavewoman analogies do help them to illustrate their points.

The book is well put together in a pretty light-hearted style. While not being unputdownable, it is an easy read. One quibble though has to be that, after a while, many of the jokes seem to be a little tedious.

As well as illustrating the differences between men and women, the book gives examples of how these lead to conflict and misunderstandings. Their advice is pretty much to learn about the differences and grin and bear it.

Of course, the book goes over much the same ground as the Mars-Venus stuff but, it does so at a somewhat simpler and, some would say, superficial level. If you get to the end of Mars-Venus and absorb what it says then this book is not for you. On the other hand, If you found M-V to be too heavy and a bit pretentious then the lighthearted and more direct style of this book could be just what you need.

At the end of the book, there is a substantial list of references and further reading. This varies from other popular psychology books to research papers which provide the scientific backing for the authors ideas. Unfortunately, they just list these with no comment and no attempt to categorise the items. This means that the list is of little use to a reader interested in exploring further topics or referring to some of the research on which the authors ideas depend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Understand and laugh at your differences, 24 Aug 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps: How We're Different and What to Do about It (Paperback)
Based on 12 years of clinical research on the male/female brains. An interesting, funny and enlightening read. Understanding your differences is the key to putting them in their place and laughing at them instead of fighting about them or feeling resentment and frustration. It also makes you aware of why you are the way you are, therefore, eliminating the need to prove yourself as anything else. For everyone in a relationship of any kind.
