Publisher's Summary

A great "philosopher" once said, "Trying to understand women is like trying to smell the color nine." But the fact is, men can understand women to their great benefit. All they need is the right teacher. And, arguably, there is no better teacher than John Gottman, PhD, a world-renowned relationships researcher and author of the best-selling 7 Principles of Making Marriage Work.

His new book, written with wife Julie Gottman, a clinical psychologist; Doug Abrams; and Rachel Carlton Abrams, MD, is based on 40 years of scientific study, much of it gleaned from the Gottmans' popular couples' workshops and the "love lab" at the University of Washington. It's written primarily for men because new research suggests that it is the man in a relationship who wields the most influence to make it great or screw it up beyond repair.

The Man's Guide to Women offers the science-based answers to the question: What do women really want in men? The book explains the hallmarks of manhood that most women find attractive and helps men hone those skills to be the men women desire.

More Scientific than practical

The book is more scientific than general and practical. It says what women want but not what men want. Does not show in what fields to improve and no experiences discussed. How men can be improved physically and mentally through exposure is missed out. It only shows behavioral patterns.
It doesn't not shows that girls need more than a man, a true bad boy personality with alpha traits.

a Goodread for a beginner

its a decent book for a begginer who wasn't into any serious relationship. it doesn't acknowledge change in role of men and women over the period in detail.

Relationship book in it's entirety.

Loved that the narration wasn't a robotic one with things making sense with that human connection through the narration.Got to learn a lot about the opposite gender and got a lot of myths cleared in the head. An informative book with the actual things that matter in a relationship and not just a hooking up guide..

So this is it!

what we boys(men) are searching for is right here, in this book. From start to end, you'll love this book, and some times you'll fee its so true. I will surely recommend this book to every male out there for "a tuning" with women.

A must book for every men

There might not have been a single exception in man's world where they have not thought that why women behave in the way they do. I have tried every body language learning and lots of YouTube videos just to understand women and make amends with them with that knowledge but all in vain. This path I have tried for years but all in vain. But as I am married now, I desperately need this knowledge. This book has given me a ray of hope to make things right. Everything is elaborated in very simple words and easy to understand. The only problem that this book has not able to handle properly is male ego of why all efforts to be done from their side. But one thing I am saying to me on this is first plant the sapling and help it to grow, it is you only who will pluck the fruits.

Great Information

The Book is nothing but overall facts.It just gives every problems a complete detailed solution and how as to why the problems were created in the first place and how to prevent them. This book is a must read especially for this generation which has normalised toxic relationship, this book might make them realise how a healthy and loving relationship will not only make their present better but also the outcome of thier future.
