Publisher's summary

She reads people, and he reads manuals. He doesn't ask for directions, and she doesn't appreciate his advice. She is so mysterious, and he is so practical. He does not seem to listen, and she seems so emotional. The list goes on and on....

In a world where men and women are constantly told they are not different, His Brain, Her Brain shows couples what they instinctively know - men and women are different, and these divinely designed differences, when understood, make a marriage stronger and happier.

Combining the latest brain research along with their experiences in over three decades of marriage and counseling, Dr. Walt and Barb Larimore explain how the unique design of each sex, particularly the unique brain and hormones of each, results in different habits, tendencies, and nuances of thought and action.

True and enlightening

This book is accurate and true, and very helpful in understanding men and women and how their differences make them unique and precious. I also found that it described differences in the two current political parties, whose character resembles the differences between the way men and women think. Let's all read this book, and learn how to understand and get along with each other.

Complete Fictional Book, by a whipped man

I’ve been in the Biology field for 15 years and the science in this book completely wrong!

Way too religious

This is a good book but its constantly quoting the bible as Truth gets old fast. I'm pretty sure God didn't write a book that condones slavery. A scientific book that insists on inflicting upon us religious assumptions and biases should come with warning label. I am that warning label. :)

Fascinating!

I love studying the brain and how we make decisions. This book describes the differences between men and women's brains and how all of that plays into a healthy marriage, and ultimately God's plan. Great book, I would highly recommend reading before getting married.

Antiquated Book - Wrong Time

This is the worst book I've listened to about relationships since joining Audible. I thought it was going to be science based not bible based with selective science to back up the bible. I am all for scientists who are religious and have strong faith backgrounds. But science and facts should come first. The books approach to women is so antiquated even this 62 year old man can see that it does not apply and isn't even quaint.

Very in-depth and worth the read

Are you wanting to understand the differences between men and women? Check this book out. I am learning so much about the differences and it is truly amazing. We are truly fearfully and wonderfully made!

Super insightful!

Easy to understand. I recommend it to single people as well as couples. Details down to biochemistry.

Enlightening!!

I thought I already knew a lot about the man’s brain and about my own, but my previous knowledge pales in comparison to what I’ve gathered from this book.

It was really enjoyable and helpful that both Walt and his Wife participated in the Audio. The content was very relatable, unbiased and very enlightening, especially for a newlywed like me. And i loved that biblical references were used!

To the Authors:
Thank you for allowing God to use in this Area
