In particular, the book explores how differently the male and female think, and how we can all benefit once these differences are understood. These differences have come to be known as the Mars vs. Venus phenomenon. Yes, Mars is certainly a different planet than Venus! It is quite puzzling how two sexes of the same species can be so different. How can the same brain placed in two different genders think so differently?! The author, being recently divorced himself, describes his experiences while trying to re-enter the world of dating. Some of the stories are hilarious, while others are quite explicit in nature, and at times even erotic. Edwards definitely added some spice to this book!

You will find this book informative, humorous and very entertaining! Written in his witty and colorful style, the author tries to bridge that gap between Mars and Venus, and head straight towards Uranus, where he claims is the place we can all be happy!

As tempers in the park flare and scavengers big and small begin squeezing his community, he must make his stand. Driven by a deep desire to return to his old life inside the biometrically locked city, he takes on a risky job-one with an all-or-nothing price tag.Recalling such classics as Phillip K.

"e;Spiritual Snake Oil"e; shows that the same fallacies that plague religious apologetics also infect virtually all "e;new age"e; and "e;spiritual"e; writing. Author Chris Edwards does this by dissecting the arguments and assertions of the most prominent "e;new age"e; icons and "e;spiritual"e; writers. They include Robert Pirsig ("e;Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"e;), James Redfield ("e;The Celestine Prophecy"e;), Deepak Chopra ("e;Life After Death"e;), Dinesh D'Souza ("e;Life After Death"e;), Francis Collins's ("e;The Language of God"e;), Rhonda Byrne ("e;The Secret"e;), and even Michael Crichton (a surprising defender of New Age thinking). As Edwards shows, the same fallacies, the same errors in argument, show up time after time in the writings of these--and virtually all other--"e;new age"e; and "e;spiritual"e; writers. In addition to explaining these fallacies in the chapters devoted to the individual authors, Edwards devotes a final chapter, "e;A Compendium of Fallacies,"e; to outlining the tricks and deceptive practices common to illogical arguments.
