From AudioFile
Married people experience love most strongly through five love languages--quality time, words of encouragement, gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. With thoughtfulness and a gee-whiz tone that works well in all his audios, Gary Chapman aims his insights at men who want more from marriage, as well as those who have more to give. He's a humble teacher, describing the five languages with satisfying examples from his counseling practice and framing his ideas as suggestions. Without making light of the work a marriage requires, he'll convince most men that, if they love their wives, they can easily express it in ways that can make a marriage truly special for everybody.

Customer Reviews
It doesn't hurt
I have been married for 12 years and we have a 5 year old girl. A friend recommended this book to me. I think the book does a good job making you realize that there are different emotional priorities (languages). If you're of the philosophy that marriage takes work, this may help channel your 'work' more effectively. I thought the examples used were strikingly accurate. I now know that my wife and I have different primary love languages and that knowledge is power. It's a worthwhile read and only positive things can come out of it.
Better the second time around
I read this book with a small group of married couples more than 10 years ago and learned much from it. Reading and hearing this version for men was a nice refresher and reminded me of a few important aspects of marriage. The new material after each love language chapter was especially helpful. It's great to be able to "read" a book like this while sitting in Atlanta traffic.
not worth the read!
My wife and I read this book together and found it very simple, nothing new. People, just use your own common sense and treat each other with love and respect and you will be happy together. Plus just too pious for our tastes.
