Average customer review:Product Description
Modern chivalry is manners with a sexy edge - it just makes things easier if you know what women really want.
The new code of male manners allows men and women to enjoy their differences without falling into old, patronising patterns. It requires men to think things through, sifting the meaningful gesture from empty convention.
Not all this comes naturally to all men, but good manners can be learned. Using the inside knowledge that only women can provide, Debrett's Manners for Men sets out the new rules for male behaviour, providing an indispensable introduction to the dangerous world of dating, romance and commitment.
From first dates to meeting her mother and living together, Manners for Men will ensure that the modern man can confront every social challenge with style and panache.

Customer Reviews
Hmmm.....
Very stylish yet incredibly light on useful information. I would have appreciated it if they had spent a little less time and effort on the glossy photos on each page and more on the actual content.
Anyway, you live and learn!
No revelations, but good for a laugh
I bought this out of curiosity, and although it is a fine looking book with a quality feel, the content contains nothing common sense wouldn't tell you. Chapters are short, and go into basics of what is expected at different stages of dating a girl. There are no 'magic' tips, but having said that, you may pick up one or two tips that could make the difference when dating, so it might be worth buying just for that alone. Several of the lines in the book did make me laugh out loud. For example in the section on giving compliments: "If the object of your desire is blessed with a spectacular bosom, remark on the delicacy of her wrists." There are a few more classic lines like this which are are good for a laugh if nothing else.
Really not that good
Very classy book - nicely printed, looks very stylish but no real information in it that can be applied to real life situations that isnt already common sense - very thin on the ground....
