Harvey Mackay, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive

Leave it to John Gray, whose creativity framed gender differences in planetary terms as Mars and Venus, starting a never-ending conversation about the differences between men and women, to go Beyond Mars and Venus and make the discussion relevant for contemporary couples. All couples, traditional or modern, will be informed by this perceptive thinker about relationships.

Harville Hendrix, PhD and Helen LaKelly Hunt, PhD, authors of Getting the Love You Want and Making Marriage Simple

How do we achieve true love in todays stressful, chaotic world? How many times have we attempted to explain the inexplicable by saying, Well, you know, men are from Mars, a term so frequently used its part of pop vernacular? Heres the deal, men are from Mars and women are from Venus; understanding that traditional roles have changed and evolved, and being able to adapt to the shift is key to a successful relationship. John Grays Beyond Mars and Venus captures this evolution from both perspectives. Becoming comfortable in our new roles allows for each of us to be seen, heard, and affectionate with one another. Being able to express these inherent sides of ourselves clearly determines our strengths and need for stress management and choosing balance. Greater intimacy and deep love are the gifts. I love this book.
