Synopsis

In his phenomenal bestseller Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, John Gray explained how better communication and the acknowledgment of men's and women's different emotional needs lead to greater intimacy. In his new book, Mars and Venus in the Bedroom, he takes that philosophy one step further, describing how those advanced relationship skills also result in great sex.

In Mars and Venus in the Bedroom, both men and women learn how to become sexually satisfied without frustrating their partner; be better lovers; rekindle passion and maintain it in a monogamous relationship; keep sex interesting and not mechanical; communicate their sexual needs effectively and romantically; and make the most of their differences to stimulate their relationship.

Yes, men are still from Mars and women are still from Venus, and what's more, John Gray explains in an explicit, sexy, and romantic way, couples have to understand and embrace their differences in order to achieve an exciting, long-lasting relationship inside the bedroom and out.

From Booklist:

Gray's What Your Mother Couldn't Tell You & Your Father Didn't Know (1994) failed to match the success of its predecessor, the megaselling Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus (1992), so this time out, Gray titles his offering seemingly in hopes of stimulating brand-name recognition and, hence, consumer loyalty. Still, the antinomy of Mars and Venus, of masculine aggression and feminine absorption, of masculine flame and feminine smoldering, is apt when discussing the differences in men's and women's sexual response that underlie all Gray's advice on sustaining satisfying sexual relations. Also underlying his counsel, and making this guide different from many others as well as appealing to the new moral conservatism of the 1990s, are his endorsement of monogamy and his repeated assertion that "great sex is God's gift." In accordance with those emphases, Gray writes not so much of the "mechanics of sex" as of the "mechanics of making sure you have sex," and his chapters bear titles such as "The Joy of Quickies" and "How to Rekindle the Passion" as well as the more expected "How to Drive a Woman Wild with Pleasure." Gray's a plain, even pedestrian, writer, capable of talking about sex in a manner neither lubricious nor clinical, and that capability, along with the title, helps ensure that the half-million-copy first printing HarperCollins has ordered will, as they say, move.
