Publisher's summary

Get seriously involved with the most famous relationship book ever!

Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to Earth and amnesia set in: They forgot they were from different planets.

Based on years of successful counseling of couples and individuals, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus has helped millions of couples transform their relationships. Now viewed as a modern classic, this phenomenal book has helped men and women realize how different they really are and how to communicate their needs in such a way that conflict doesn't arise and intimacy is given every chance to grow.

Excellent Book

I love this book! I first got it on CD in the mid 90s, and that was the first time I ever heard and understood that men and women were psychologically different, and saw clearly how to use this knowledge, to have a more harmonious relationship. Although I think it sounds a bit old-time-ish, the principles and knowledge presented is this book are invaluable, and will forever be. It was easy to listen to, pleasant gentle voice and the length is great. The knowledge in this book could help save relationships/marriages. I highly recomend this book to everyone!

Men and women in marriage need constant reminders

I've had this book is an audible book for eight years and Time and time again
When we hit the inevitable rough patch I listen to it and I'm always surprised to hear something new, something that is useful and that I can remember which will help me and my wife.
The material in this book is as relevant today as it was the day it was written, some human behavior is hardwired.

I think like the end of the book says try and learn as much as you can about Venetians and Martians and apply ever so slowly some of the material and like me you will be surprised it actually works every time.

Mostly Useful, Some Weird

Any additional comments?

Most of it was very good and useful information, but the part about the rubber band and the wave didn't seem applicable to my wife and I.

Valuable insights to foster understanding

Short read, but good food for thought. A step in the right direction to understand the opposite sex and behave in a way that bridges the gaps.
