About this listen
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.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

This book will save every relationship!!!!
Unless you’re with someone who doesn’t want to believe the facts and the decades of research done by the Gottmans, I can’t imagine this book doing anything but making unhappy unions into happy ones again! As long as your partner has the ability to self reflect (I believe there’s even potential if your partner has narcissistic traits or personality disorder, so long as they’re not too high on the spectrum). I’d recommend everyone have the men in their lives listen to/read this book (and I would recommend the women listen as well!) before throwing in the towel!

I really enjoyed this book. It contains information that is very practical and easy to apply to everyday life... although I see the hand of a Creator in the evidence of studying life. #Audible1
