Publisher's summary

The Phenomenal Number One New York Times Best Seller

In his classic guide to understanding the opposite sex, Dr. John Gray provides a practical and proven way for men and women to improve their communication and relationships by acknowledging the differences between them.

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 timeless book has helped men and women realize how different they can be in their communication styles, their emotional needs, and their modes of behavior, and offers the secrets of communicating without conflicts, allowing couples to give intimacy every chance to grow.

So much more...

I've heard about this book for years but always thought it was for couples struggling with their marriage but it's so much more! I gained so much insight, which will help improve my relationship with my wife, mother, sister, friends and colleagues of the opposite sex. very well written too, Gray does a great job recapping and summarizing each chapter so key points are easily remembered. two thumbs up and highly recommended!!

Must read but with patience

The book has very wise and unique explanations for a lot of expectations and behaviors of men and women in a relationship. It can really help understand your partner and also get more from them, trust me.

The bad part is that almost at the end the author starts talking a lot about feelings and emotions and lose the track of what we were learning. He was teaching us how to understand our partner and then transform the talk to an emotional lecture about you and how to treat your feelings and I think that should be put in another book.

At the end you have to read it. It will teach you a lot, but when the author starts talking about something different be patient until he gets back to the good part.

Ahead of its time

It is great to listen to. A book that equally shares both women's and men's points of view so we can understand each other.
