This review is from: Survival Skills for the Modern Man: Life, Love, Work, Play (Paperback)

I found this book quite helpful. I recieved it as a graduation gift, and it has really come in handy. It is a great little reference book with lots of information to educate the young professional, and I have bought several copies as gifts!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just great., September 7, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Survival Skills for the Modern Man: Life, Love, Work, Play (Paperback)

I found this book a little too cliche for me in the beginning, because I did not know what to expect from it (I received it as a present). But then I thought it was great, the off-beat humor mixed warmly with what you really need to know to be successful. On top of that, this book managed to take my depression elsewhere.

Good job Donn M. Davis, you really put a lot of thought into this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars One woman definitely approves of the Modern Man!, October 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Survival Skills for the Modern Man: Life, Love, Work, Play (Paperback)

Not just a book for men to buy, this is a great book for any woman to give to her special guy. Davis clearly understands that the Modern Man is made not born, and his attempt to condense important advice into short chapters is much appreciated by at least one sophisticated Modern Woman.
