  <default_description>What&amp;rsquo;s going on in a man&amp;rsquo;s mind? From their early days, every woman has struggled to understand why males behave the way they do. Even long-married women who think they understand men have only scratched the surface. Beneath a man&amp;rsquo;s rugged exterior is an even more rugged, unmapped terrain. What bestselling author Shaunti Feldhahn&amp;rsquo;s research reveals about the inner lives of men will open women&amp;rsquo;s eyes to what the men in their life&#8212;boyfriends, brothers, husbands, and sons&#8212;are &lt;i&gt;really &lt;/i&gt;thinking and feeling. Men want to be understood, but they&amp;rsquo;re afraid to &#8220;freak out&#8221; the women they love by confessing what is happening inside their heads. This book will guide women in how to provide the loving support that modern men want and need. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Truth About His Inner Life &lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;He Desperately Wants You to Know &lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What's going on in there? Ever been totally confused by something your man has said or done? Want to understand his secret desires and fears, his daily battles that you know nothing about?  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In a woman-to-woman conversation you&amp;rsquo;ll never forget, Shaunti Feldhahn takes you beneath the surface into the inner lives of men. This book is about the things we just don&amp;rsquo;t &#8216;get&amp;rsquo; about guys. With findings from a groundbreaking national survey and personal interviews of over one thousand men, &lt;i&gt;For Women Only&lt;/i&gt; is full of eye-opening revelations you need to not only understand the man in your life, but to support and love him in the way he needs to be loved. Grounded in biblical hope, you will discover how to love your man for who he &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; is&#8212;not who you &lt;i&gt;think&lt;/i&gt; he is.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Story Behind the Book&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I had no idea how clueless I was about men until I interviewed a bunch of them for my last novel. Initially, I just wanted a little insight so I could write my main (male) character. But pretty soon I found myself astonished, over and over again blurting out, &#8220;That&amp;rsquo;s what you&amp;rsquo;re &lt;i&gt;thinking?&#8221; &lt;/i&gt;So I did more interviews. After the novel hit shelves, dozens of women told me they also had been astonished by what I included. Clearly I wasn&amp;rsquo;t the only one who needed more insight on this!  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To lay the groundwork for this nonfiction book, I wrote out the half-dozen things from these interviews that had most surprised me&#8212;things that appeared to be universal to most men&#8212;that women desperately &lt;i&gt;needed &lt;/i&gt;to know. I conducted a professional national survey of men to test my findings. Yep&#8212;the survey substantiated every single one. These findings are fascinating&#8212;and they have already changed my life and marriage. I can&amp;rsquo;t wait to share them!</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I found this book pushed my buttons, which made for lively discussion with friends. However, i found John Grey's &quot;why mars and venus collide&quot; more enjoyable reading and very helpful. &quot;For  Women Only&quot; was only about men, and not a side by side comparison. Reading it's companion, ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/26219222">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Although this book was written in a manner that was clear, and easy to understand, and the author backed up her research by presenting answers to the survey she gave to thousands of men, I have a hard time believing the truth in all the information presented.

    <body><![CDATA[Last night I had a craving to read something, and I saw this lying around, and discovered it is just the sort of phsycoanalyzing book that I love. I read about respect and how to show it, and about men's priorities, and I thought &quot;This is awesome! It all makes so much sense now.

    <body><![CDATA[I regret buying this on an impressive level.  I honestly feel lied to since I didn't know this book was so heavily endorsed by Jesus.  Every excerpt I read from this book and even the product description gave no hint as to the very Christian nature of this book.  Normally, I can deal with that but i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/70348424">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a nice little short read, and offered a lot of valuable insight.  I personally found the second half of the book much more useful than the first half, mostly because I thought the first chapters made more generalizations about men, whereas the last chapters seemed more universal.
