5.0 out of 5 stars Eye-opening analysis of the male-female relationship, June 15, 2000

This review is from: The New Male-Female Relationship (Signet) (Paperback)

I bought this book in '83 and have recently referred back to it. The gender paradigm of the male "macho warrior" and female "earth mother" as ideals are dissected and ultimately, debunked. He lays out an alternative way of relating, based not on ego/gender defensiveness, but on comfort in one another's company and a shared playfulness. If you have a few hours, and an open mind to explore and learn, this book may be the one that proves that the world is round, even in a time when common wisdom says it's flat

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Succint and Honest, March 30, 2001

By 

Steve Wolverton (Columbia, MO United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The New Male-Female Relationship (Hardcover)

I found Dr. Golberg's message to be refreshingly honest. It was tough to take; however, it is refreshing to find advice that holds men and women entirely responsible not just for their behavior but for their motivation. This book has helped me confront just how much I wish to be mothered, how covert I am in my purpose, and how the best solution is self-acceptance and a conscious push to change fear-motivated behavior. This title was published in 1983, and I read it in 2001. It applies now. For those who wish for no excuses and want to be open, clear, honest, and expressive without hurting their partners---this book offers sound advice and thoughtful content.
