内容简介
Publisher Comments :
From bestselling author and relationship guru Barbara DeAngelis, a funny, sexy, candid crash course in "Women 101" — for men everywhere. Ever since Barbara DeAngelis wrote the #1 New York Times bestseller Secrets About Men Every Woman Should Know, her female readers have been begging her to write its counterpart — a book for both sexes that explains what women want men to know about understanding and loving the woman in their life. Delivered in her signature frank, provocative, and down-to-earth style, this new book does just that, and is an insightful guide that women will read to learn more about themselves, and will give to the man they love. Here, women will learn how to successfully communicate their needs and desires about love, sex, and relationships to men in a way men can really hear; men will get an inside look at how to really understand and love a woman in and out of bed, including techniques that will be very tempting to try; couples will get proven and practical advice for transforming power struggles into cooperation, and frustration into exciting new ways to be intimate. Included are the biggest myths about women and why they're just plain wrong, the four secrets to remember about women that will make a man's life easier, how to translate what women say into what they really mean, ways to avoid turning a perfectly sweet woman into a raving maniac, and sexual secrets women won't tell men, but that every man needs to know. Dr. DeAngelis's appealing and honest style has already helped sell millions of relationship-building books, tapes, and videos. Now, she stands poised to reach her largest audience yet with this powerful new book that every woman will want for herself and for the man in her life.
FromPublishers Weekly
Like John Gray, relationship expert and motivational speaker DeAngelis (Are You the One for Me?, etc.) highlights recognizable distinctions between the needs and communicating styles of men and women. Based upon the experiences of "tens of thousands of people" and women's responses to a questionnaire, her latest work aspires to offer "simple, practical ways to communicate and make both (sexes) happier." Though arguably bordering on stereotype, her easily digestible truths (women put love first, are creators, have a sacred relationships with time) can help both sexes gain perspective. But treacly writing (e.g., "no beauty treatment... outfit... jewels... can make a woman look as radiant as when she is feeling loved") and heavy-handed admonitions (e.g., to read the book "from start to finish") detract from more helpful observations. However, restraint is not DeAngelis's trademark, nor what fans expect. Though the focus is on interpreting women's behavior (e.g., viewing being "too emotional" as "in touch with feelings"), men's behavior doesn't seem to merit the same consideration. For example, she lists the top-10 male habits that drive women crazy (vagueness, emotional withdrawal, lying to avoid unpleasantness, bossing women around) without further elucidation. Perhaps DeAngelis is saving the interpretations for the sequel, but it's a shame to turn off men who may benefit from her genuine insights in, for example, the small but provocative section on sex. (Aug.)Forecast: Women will flock to this, as they have to her other bestsellers, but the intended male audience may prove difficult to capture.
FromLibrary Journal
DeAngelis (Secrets About Men Every Woman Should Know) here writes for both men and women, aiming to help men understand the women in their lives and to help women understand themselves more clearly. She divides her book into three sections: what women want men to know about them, about love, intimacy, and communication, and about sexual turnoffs and turnons. The material comes from DeAngelis's 25 years of counseling, events in her own life and the lives of her friends, and a questionnaire she sent to hundreds of women. DeAngelis has a frank, to-the-point style, but she is neither profane nor voyeuristic. She hopes that a woman could hand this book to her companion and say "Read this and you will understand me" and it is just that sort of book. It delivers what it promises, is compelling reading, and is easy to grasp, with boxed hints and the use of both boldface and italics to help readers separate her ideas. Her concepts of the "dove pie" and "Love House" are worthy of the price of the book. Great talk-show material, this will be popular in public libraries.

The essence of a woman is that she wants to feel secure and to take care of others. When husbands understand this, they will start cherishing their wives and stop defending themselves from what seems like relentless insecurity and controlling behavior. These are rich ideas that foster looking beyond the surface complaints that ruin so many marriages. And while male enlightenment is the focus here, DeAngelis states that women are responsible for how constructively they communicate their needs and work through conflicts. It's a fabulous lesson on how to understand the most important person in any family, and a must hear for men and women.
