Description:

Once upon a time, Martians and Venusians functioned in separate worlds. But in today's hectic and career-oriented environment, relationships have become a lot more complicated, and men and women are experiencing unprecedented levels of stress. To add to the increasing tension, most men and women are also completely unaware that they are actually hardwired to react differently to the stress. It's a common scenario: a husband returns home from work stressed out and eager to kick back on the couch and watch television. A wife returns home from work stressed out and wants to talk about it with her husband. What happens? Neither is on the same page, anger and resentment set in, and Mars and Venus collide.

Using his signature insight that has helped millions of couples transform their relationships, John Gray once again arms the inhabitants of Mars and Venus with information that will help them live harmoniously ever after. In Why Mars and Venus Collide, Gray focuses on the ways that men and women misinterpret and mismanage the stress in their daily lives, and how these reactions ultimately affect their relationships. "It's not that he's just not into you; he needs to fulfill a biological need," Gray explains. "And it's not that she wants to henpeck you; she also has a biological drive." He shows, for instance, how a husband's withdrawal is actually a natural way for him to replenish his depleted testosterone levels and restore his well-being, and how a woman's need for conversation and support helps her build her own stress-reducing hormone, oxytocin.

Backed up by groundbreaking scientific research, Gray offers a clear, easy-to-understand program to bridge the gap between the two planets, providing effective communication strategies that will actually lower stress levels. Whether in a relationship or single, this book will help both men and women understand their new roles in a modern, work-oriented society, and allow them to discover a variety of new and practical ways to create a lifetime of love and harmony.

4half good, half...  Nov 15, 2009
As with most books from this author, only the half is good information. The rest is just him talking .... about what he thinks and stuff, total boredom. But the fist half of the book is very informative and has nice science facts, quite interesting. I helps to understand why after sex a man wants to sleep and a woman doesn't necessarily, its physical, it can't be avoided.

Anyways good book for adding, if you have some books of the series. If you don't try not to start in this one.

3Pretty good but no blockbuster  Nov 05, 2009
John Gray makes some important points, but goes very slowly thru them, gives too many examples, and makes many comments that are either obvious or
doubtable. And if he wants to read his own books on tape, he should get a voice coach to help him lose this tinny thin voice and help him find his own
true deeper voice that comes from his belly instead of his tight throat.

1A seemingly colliding book  Oct 11, 2009
I have listened to other programs from john Grey and they have been relatively good. I listened to the audio book of this program. First of all, he keeps introducing what he wants to talk about rather than talking about it. Then when he actually starts talking about it, he keeps repeating it through different sentence structures. I was flabbergasted how such a good, well-known author could do that! Second, there is no passion or any sort of enthusiasm in his voice reading the book. He just reads it! After listening to hundreds of audio books from various authors it was odd and disappointing . All in all, it seems like he was supposed to come up with a new book, and it had to be stretched to certain length. Couldn't go past the first CD after listening to it twice! Exasperating experience!

4Helpful book, but dented  Oct 07, 2009
I really liked the content of the book as it had some helpful ideas. The price of it was reduced, but I was disappointed that it said it would be new, which it was, but it had a huge gash on the front that almost but not quite tore (just dented) the pages part way into the beginnings of the book. I didn't complain as I figured that was why it was so discounted....But it was not mentioned before purchasing the book.

5Recommended to read for everybody  Aug 14, 2009
This book gives very good insightful information about how men and women think differently and how we deal with stress. How we should help each other deal with stress in our life, in order to have a good relationship.
