Summary: Not a bad book
Comment: This book is mainly directed at woman around 30+ and more imporantly people that have been divorced or widowed. It has mini stories every couple of pages with real life examples of his teachings as well as exercises at the end of each chapter. Most, if not all, of the examples given in his chapters involve woman, in one case a gay man, that have been divorced or had a bad breakup and their struggles.
This book is written in the "self help" format with a therapist understanding. The description also talks about places to find singles, but the actual book gives little to zero notice on the topic.
If you're a guy looking for a tutorial on talking to women this is the wrong book for you. This book is geared towards older adults looking to "get back on the horse".

If the concepts worked for me, they'll work for anybody.Though be warned - if you are not prepared to do the work, you won't find this a quick-fix and you will be disappointed.

Summary: It's not what the author says so much as how he says it.
Comment: This book contains two absolutely marvelous concepts that really grabbed me. The big one was "Be The Chooser." It's not a new idea, but it was phrased in a way that helped me understand, very simply and solidly, exactly what it means to be proactive in looking for a good relationship. Another one was the clear explanation of the difference between dating for relationship practice, dating to find a life partner, and the big mistake of "dating to mate." and how to tell which you're doing and which you should be doing.
Other than that, this book isn't all THAT new and different. After all, there aren't many relationship books that have something genuinely new to say. But it is approachable, accessible, and totally reassuring, which is a huge plus in a universe of how-to-find-love books that start with the assumption that if you're still single, there's something wrong with you that needs to be fixed. Thank goodness for a book that starts with the assumption that it's perfectly fine not to be racing down the aisle with the first likely suspect.
