If you have note read Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps then I would get that first as this book while it contains soem very useful insights is really a sequel and it contains soem repetition of the first book but not enough be fully satisfying on its own. I still recommend it though as it has some very useful pointers that do not appear in the original and the section on nagging I found exceptionally useful to understand.

My friend has recommended this book to me.It easy explains why and what is going on in men mind. If you just follow certain rules, you can understand them better and improve relationship in your family.

I received this book as a going-away gift from a then-boyfriend. It was somewhat amusing teasing him, wondering if there was indeed some kind of hidden message. I found this book entertaining with the comics and illustrations and personable style, as well as easy to follow along. I had some "hmmm" moments when I got to the part about beauty and what men and women are attracted to. It seemed to strike me as too readily evolutionary and there were some traits I didn't quite agree with. It's a useful book to pull out and use as conversation fodder!

My earlier picks of Allan + Barbara Pease has been a great read and this book is no exception though some of the contents seem repetative. Why Men don't Listen and Women can't Read Maps was a wonderful book and so was Body Language. So, I couldn't resist a pick of this book 'Why men lie and Women cry'! Main reason was the book title that bring a twitchy smile upon the face and second reason was that it's been a great gifting Allan & Barbara Pease's unique Books which delights the reader.

I found Allan and Barbara Pease's first book, "Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps", extremely brave and funny, but this new book is really just a repetition of what was said in the first book and is also repetitive within the text. Also, I found this book to be somewhat more flat and less intelligent than the first book, but that may be because I had too big expectations.There is no need to buy this book if you have read the first one or other books by the Pease's. However, if you haven't, then it's here for you to order.And don't expect this book to be science ... It is common sense.
