This is the classic relationship book -- now in trade paperback for the first time. Featured on 'Oprah' and 'Sally Jesse Raphael', this definitive look at the dynamics of male-female communication gets to the heart of the all-too-common phenomenon: women who are ready and willing to commit, and men who back off just as the relationship moves toward the next level. This book can help you to: Recognise early warning signs of the commitment-phobic man; Determine the extent of his fears -- and his willingness to change; Analyse your own role in the situation; avoid unnecessary stress and heartache.
