Book Review: What's He Really Thinking

"What's He Really Thinking?" How to be a Relational Genius with the Man in Your Life
by Paula Rinehart

If there's one universal in any woman's life it's this: she will always be relating to a man. Auther Paula Rinehart uses her more than twenty years of counseling experience along with in depth study and scientific research to help un-lock the age old mysteries of the male mind-set with her woman's field guide to the male psyche.

This book took me ages to read, but only because of the current season of my life and beautiful sunny weather outside. Rinehart uses scientific fact and biblical fact to clearly explain the differences between the genders, but she does not leave you with the feeling of reading a science textbook. After explaining the pure facts she moves into easy explanations, several examples and case studies. But she doesn't leave you hanging there. Rinehart also leaves you with many hints and tips on how to deal with these situations in your own life.

The book is very practical and extremely relevant no matter what your relational situation may be with the many men in your life. From dealing with a co-worker, brother, father to a husband all are covered. Even if you find yourself in a perfect marriage or with no issues with any other male this book will still prove helpful for you.

I recommend this book for anyone who has any interest in dealing with the opposite gender, as I said before whether or not you think you need advice. Also her book shares several insights into what makes a female tick versus a male so I would also recommend it to the men in our lives... although you may have to bribe them to get them to touch it! Defiantly an interesting read.
