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.

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.

Critic reviews

"A valuable, much-needed book. A contribution to the understanding of the communication styles of men and women." (Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., author of Getting the Love You Want)

Great Simple Read

Me and my SO had become stuck in a rut of having the same arguments over and over. I kept thinking "he's just not listening to me". I decided to pick up this book since I had heard about it from a friend a long time ago and it was a quick audiobook to listen to while at work. This was exactly the reminder I needed. I no longer feel like we're in a hopeless rut but that I just needed to remember that we are two different people and need to remember to not make assumptions and talk lovingly.

Oldie but a Goodie

This abridged version was short and sharp but I good all of the salient points in 1 hour.
Brilliant!

Love this book

This book has really helped me with my relationship
I had my bf listen to this book and at first he hated the idea but once he got into it he started being so much nicer and more understanding
And the book wasn’t boring at all and had great use of examples

Beautifully Thoughtful and Entertaining

This book is a thought provoking and entertaining way to obtaining insight on the opposite sex. It does an excellent job at putting a frame around how the different sexes approach the development of the relationship, what they stress about, and how the interpret the actions in acquiring emotional capital.

Now it all makes sense!

This book helped me understand that the differences that we have in our marriage are actually so normal and just a "mars venus" thing and not a "me him" thing! Gave me so much encouragement and insight! :)

excellent advice

learned important things, going to apply them. narrator wasn't the greatest, more academic, but that's the book so survivable

so helpful. if youve ever met a member of the opposite sex around you have go listen

Mars and Venus

Many points that I could relate to. John Grey shares some timeless knowledge that could definitely benifit many relationships.

A MUST READ FOR ANY YOUNG COUPLE

Where does Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Ranks pretty high.

If you could give Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus a new subtitle, what would it be?

A road map into how the minds of men and women are different. Would'nt you like to avoid all those stupid little fights that seem to break out on the way out to dinner Friday night for example.

Any additional comments?
