About this listen
Why Men Are the Way they Are is what women don't know about men - and men don't know about themselves. Dr. Warren Farrell is a pioneer of both the women's and men's movements. He started more than 300 men's and women's groups - joined by men from John Lennon to John Gray.
Oprah calls Why Men Are the Way they Are "one terrific book!"
The N.Y. Post calls it "the most important book ever written about love, sex, and intimacy."
For this audio version, Dr. Warren Farrell personally rewrote the book's highlights as if it were a dialogue between, say, you and him - allowing you to answer questions like these:
About Men:
- How can I get him to express his feelings before he becomes angry?
- Why are the men I am attracted to the most difficult to get along with?
- Why are the best men the most afraid of commitment?
- Why are men so preoccupied with sports?
- Why can't a man be a friend before a sex partner?
- Why are men such jerks?
OR
About Women:
- Why do women say they'd like to hear my feelings but then withdraw when they hear my feelings?
- If women are so liberated, why do the most attractive ones still expect me to ask them out, pay for dinner, take all the sexual initiatives, and call them in the morning?
- Why are the women who earn the most the least interested in commitment?
- Why are the women I'm most attracted to the most difficult to get along with?
- Why is a woman who supports just herself called a "career woman" while a man who supports just himself is called a "playboy"?
- Why are men denied equal opportunity to the children after divorce?
- Why do most married women have the option to work or raise children, while their husbands have the option to work or work?
The author offers a 100 percent money back guarantee if the listener feels less-than delighted.

Story
For the audio book version, Dr. Warren Farrell personally rewrote the highlights of The Myth of Male Power as a dialogue. The questions are similar to what others will ask you when you discuss these issues. You’ll have Dr. Farrell’s best answers. The Myth of Male Power helps each family member understand that genuine power is neither status nor money, but “control over one's life.” He documents that virtually every society that has survived has done so by persuading its sons to be disposable--whether in war or in work; and therefore indirectly as dads. And disposability is not power. Considered the Bible of men's studies—yet highly empathetic to women (Dr. Farrell was repeatedly elected to the Board of the National Organization for Women in NYC)-- the meticulously researched The Myth of Male Power takes the listener on a captivating journey around the world, throughout history, biology, the Bible, the law, and everyday life, challenging every currently-held assumption about men, women and the family.

Story
In Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say, Dr. Warren Farrell teaches us how to handle personal criticism without becoming defensive. He explains how being defensive evolved biologically when criticism was the sign of an enemy--and “putting up our defenses” was necessary for physical survival. However, Farrell says, “Defensiveness is the Achilles’ Heel of love.”

Story
Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like "citizens of the world" - obligated to everyone and no one. Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities. Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.
