Learn the real reason why your strong quiet type has trouble expressing his feelings. Or why your social butterfly is always flirting... or why the neatnik in your life just can't leave that dirty sock where it is... or why the hopeless romantic really is blinded by the stars in his eyes.

Barbara Barron-Tieger and Paul Tieger explain that it's not gender but personality type -- your natural tendency to be outgoing or quiet, methodical or whimsical -- that rules the way men and women relate. Drawing on 20 years of experience as well as groundbreaking new research, they offer a book filled with practical advice about the relationship you care most about -- your own. Once you have discovered which personality type describes you and your partner (or potential partner) best, you'll recognize your own behavior patters, understand more about your partner's strengths and quirks, and learn how to navigate the frustrations or rewards of your own specific pairing of personality types.

So take heart -- men and women may not be from different planets after all. Whether you're evaluating a new relationship or looking to strengthen the one you have, this savvy guide will provide fresh insight to help you understand and appreciate your partner as never before.
