[Jim Parker · Rating 4 out of 5]

I was reminded of this book this morning as a prepare to teach a class on the differences in communication styles between men and women. I could not find it on my shelf in the office so I am assuming that the book is somewhere at home.

I recall this book was cutting edge stuff back in the 70's but probably somewhat dated by now.
