There has been a lot of hype over this book. I am sure that there are those who really loved it, but as for me, I didn't. I thought it was just too simplified to think that all the problems between the sexes boils down to being men and women with different ways of thinking. Yes men are more focused and targeted hunter types, but not all men in my life are that way. There are a lot of women who are gatherers and they like to talk a lot more than men, but not all women are like that either. I know I'm not. Men talk a lot more than I do. Although they don't listen as well as I'd like, some men can relate to feelings and can show sensitivity. I think this book is just too stereotypical and it does nothing to make things any better by pointing out the differences in the sexes.
