The author of the phenomenal successful
Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, has brought out a new book for people seeking lasting love in the face of modern pressures. Writing with humour and empathy, Gray offers solutions to points of conflict and gives ways in which couples could increase intimacy and trust. In the book Gray focuses on how the pressures of our modern career-oriented lifestyles are adding stress on their relationships and making it difficult for them to work out. Gray explores the different ways in which stressed men and women deal with their problems and offer a clear programme to bridge the gap. For example, a man's reticence when he is under pressure is actually a natural way for him to rebuild much needed stress-reducing testosterone from his depleted system. Equally, a woman's need for conversation and support when she is overwhelmed stems from a hardwired need for cooperative activities to rebuild her own stress-reducing hormone, oxytocin.
