From the Back Cover
Do you make your relationships happen or do they seem to happen to you? Do you have the relationships you deserve? Have you ever wondered why men read so few books on relationships? Never before have we known so much about why people find each other attractive, yet relationships break up more quickly now than ever before. Does nature play a trick by making us want close, satisfying relationships, yet giving us qualities that make this impossible?
Your relationships can work if you want them to.
This book will show you how to:
* choose a partner who will really suit you
* release your passion
* be yourself in a relationship and not what someone else wants you to be
* enjoy - not struggle! - with the differences between men and women.

Customer Reviews

a fine translation of some NLP techniques
Contrary to what the title might make you think, you don't need NLP knowledge in order to use this book. The way its written makes it even hard to recognize the NLP bits (I had to search for them).

Why only 4 stars? Even if the book is well written and is easy to understand, I had expected more from the book. The authors should have added some extra chapters dealing with other learnings from NLP that apply for relationships. Maybe I should be happy, at least that leaves room for others to write books. Also, the publisher has applied some low cost techniques: the paper is a bit cheap and the font used is a bit small.

This is a great book
This isn't really a book on NLP so much as a book on relationships and understanding them. As such it's well written and interesting. It spends a lot of time explaining the three voices Instinctive, Conditioned and Intellectual and how to listen to them and keep them in balance so that you can know what is important to you. It then moves on to how to work on problems and understand your partner better. It is by no means a comprehensive book on relationships or NLP but it gives an angle that no other book I've read gives and in that respect it's excellant.

Disappointing Read
I found this book dry. It was like listening to a monotone voice explaining the answers to life the universe and everything. Although the content may have some gems of wisdom in it. The delivery was very less than average. It did not hold my attention or stimulate my imagination.
