I bought this book for a good friend of mine and read it myself. It's a cynical lesson in accepting things that we may not want to see. It's also an eye opener to women to stop waiting around by the phone and to get out and circulate. Stop wondering why he doesn't call, and forget about calling him. This book is convincing even to those women who have a hard time accepting that they're worth more, and shouldn't wait around for someone who may never call.
