Within eachof these steps, he provides both specific analysis, guidelines andtechniques based on male biology, neuro-science, brain differences,unique developmental stages from youth to seniority. To illustratethese ideas in action, he's included wonderful true stories,anecdotes, and confessions from the website.

For a lasting commitment, a continuing guide to solvinginevitable problems and bumps in the road, for more fun, bettersex, genuine intimacy, and a life-long partnership--thisdynamic new author shows the way in a manner that finally includesan authentic male perspective.
