Editorial Review:
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.

Helps with Dating as Well  2008-07-16
I have taken so many helpful hints from this book and applied to my new dating relationship. The knowledge about how men handle tasks and how their brain works, helps me to react better...causing less fights! It really works. My boyfriend reaffirms me by saying "I can't believe how smoothly our relationship is going and how sweet and understanding you are." I will keep the book my secret for now :)
UNDERSTAND YOUR MAN OR WOMAN BETTER 2008-06-15
EXCELLENT CD'S, WE JUST STARTED THEM AFTER HEARING JOHN GRAY ON TALK RADIO. FOR ANYONE WORKING ON THEIR RELATIONSHIP THAT WANTS TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER BETTER THIS IS A GREAT HELP.
Brilliant read on relationships today! 2008-06-11
John Gray really knows his 'decoding' methods of men and women. Yet, he teaches us how to use them in every day life, while having fun. Our lives really have changed in the 21st century and this was a much needed update while still applying his Martian and Venusian relationship skills.
Any man or woman will definitely benefit from reading this book in their personal relationship with their partner in life. Relationships do take work, but it can be fun at the same time when we add understanding the opposite sex.
Highly recommended to everyone!

changed my life 2008-06-10
This is the most excellent book. I read it and it changed my life. I did what the author recommends and feel great now. Get off the anti-depressants they are whats making you fat and sluggish. Take the vitamins and eat the way he suggests and your life will change for the better within a matter of days.
when mars and venus collide 2008-05-25
Its too bad that so late in life (mid 50's) i read this book. I recommend it to anyone 16 and older. After the bible, if there is only one book you read, this is the one. at last we can learn why our sex and the opposite tend to act as they do. A friend gave me a cd of the book which i loved, then i bought a copy for my son. before being given the book on cd, i would have thought it a stupid sounding book and never bought it. We can all get along. Don't miss this opportunity to bring peace and understanding to the ones you love most.
