I love self help books, I love all books in fact, as long as they're non-fiction. This book is great because I learned a lot of things I had not realized prior to reading it and some that I already knew, like that WOMEN are the one's in the power position and that we are in control of who we end up with in the long run, as WELL as who we attract.
What's very strange is that women are frequently compared to Cows as well as other species. What's not strange is that we're informed of things that most of us discount because many of us think with our "hearts" and "not with our heads" but this book points out things like that rejection actually causes the brains to release the same chemicals in the brain as drugs do to an addict. Just being rejected, even by someone you were planning on rejecting, biologically makes you like them, specifically when you're single.
This isn't a feminist book, although it does make a lot of speculation (backed by a lot of research) that women ultimately select who to mate with (not always), as well as the reasons for their decision and that they also choose who to select as a life long mate. I know some men who would enjoy this book and I've currently lent it to a male friend, whose very macho, as well as well-read. He'll read it and I'm sure he'll enjoy it. It really pulls you in right away, the first two chapters just aren't enough!!
