Review by Library Journal Review

Bechtle (People Can't Drive You Crazy If You Don't Give Them the Keys) uses both his own and a plethora of others' experiences to produce this manual. He provides insights into how men listen, what drives a man, and much more. He acknowledges that each individual is different but states that some generalities that characterize the healthy male are helpful in relationship-building. Tips on how to speak to be heard and how to dismantle male stereotypes are invaluable. A chapter on red flags is particularly enlightening. VERDICT As the book is written by a man, the instructions are especially beneficial for those who are trying to communicate with a husband, male coworker, or any other man in their life. © Copyright 2016.
