Summary: How Men Should Love Women
Review: After reading this review I was suprised. With it being such an old book I thought it would be out dated, but it wasn't. I agreed with many of the ideas, and felt they should be practiced. With all of his points I feel he described they very well. I even feel that some of his points could help me in my relationship. This book told how to build a strong base for your relationship, and maintain it throughout marriage.

These letters are written to the author's son to teach lessens in life and how to treat women with respect, but it appeals to readers, which will help each everyone to be a good man, a good boyfriend, and a good husband. I strongly recommend this book to every men who have not read this book, and I want to give this book to my son if I get a chance in the future.

Summary: Great Book
Review: First of all, this Letters to Philip is a wonderful book. After I read this, I learned many new information about how to treat a woman. Basically this book is about how to treat a woman and how to live marriage life without any troubles. Most important thing is this book is based on Christian aspect. Although every chaper information helped me alot,the chapter that most impressed me was Chapter 5 "Our seven goals for communication." By learning that, I feel now I know how to deal with situation when I have argument or trouble with Women. However, there are some common sense that I already know, but it was good to reminds them in my life by reading this. This book somehow prepare me about meeting the right woman. I already took many advice from this book. Although I do not understand each chapter's themes, but I am pretty sure I will find about those themes as my life goes on. Every piece of information that this book contain is important. When I get older and become father, I want to be a father like Philip's father.

Summary: Thanks Dad
Review: I give Letters to Philip a good rating because it gives the reader honest information about a very important topic.There are 29 letters in the book and they are written from a father to his son, who is about to get married. In the letters dad tells Philip things that will help him develop a more loving relationship with his wife. Dad's advice comes from his many years of experience, but he doesn't lecture or sound like he is a know it all. At times it is a little corny and some people today might think it is old fashion. But I found it useful because he talked openly about subjects that some dads never talk to their sons about. He did talk about sex and the way men and women experience sex differently. But most of the book included suggestions about how a man can pay attention and be considerate to his wife. He included rules of communication, how to treat her in public and 6 things a man should never do. This book is good because it is easy to read, it has a lot of personal experiences and it makes a person think about what is really important in a relationship. I recommend this book to teenage boys and to young men thinking about getting married.

Summary: Great Book For New Relationships
Review: I thought that this book was extremely beneficial for a person who is begining a new relationship or is needs some help for when they are in one. The format of the book was different in that it wasn't in the normal format...rather it was comprised of several letters. It is a father writing to his son who is about to get married. Basically the book is letters that are giving advise to his son about things that he should and shouldn't do in his relationship with his wife. I think that this book was also very beneficial because it gave examples of people that have done the right and wrong thing in their relationship and the results were shown as a consequence of thier choices... whether they be good or bad. Hopefully this book can help someone with many questions about thier relationship and solve them using biblical principals.

Summary: Jonathan Harris
Review: I thought this book was really interesting. This book gave some good insight on how to treat women. From the book "Letters to Philip" I learned a few things. One thing I learned was how to treat a woman like a woman should be treated. Not like I do not treat a woman with compasion and gentleness. I am glad that I read this book because I am only 18 and I still have a lot to learn about women. This book helped show me what a relationship is like. I am looking for a woman but I am not sure if this is the right time for one. I am still in high school and it is my senior year and I will be graduating. I am not sure on where I will be going but I want to stay in California. But this book has shown me a few idea's on what I wan't to do for the woman in my future. I know that God has a plan for me and that he will bless me with who ever he put's in my life. This book has probably been one of the most inspiring books I have read because it makes me look forward to the person I will marry and how much I am going to love her. Getting married will be the best day of my life besides going to heaven and seeing God. I hope everyone that reads this preview, get's inspired to read this book. It helped me.

Summary: Letters To [Your Name Here]...
Review: If you plan on getting married -- or even if you're in a serious loving relationship -- this is definitely a "must-read" book. Dr. Shedd has written an insightful and helpful book that is guaranteed to teach you something about maintaing a healthy relationship with the woman you treasure. And as it was originally written to his own son, when reading this book you may feel that he's speaking directly to you. In no way does he present the knowledge he has learned over the years in any kind of harshness -- and while there is a tone of urgency in his letters, it's just part of the caring nature in which he writes, and that is something that I appreciated.Even if you think you know how to treat your future wife like a queen, reading this book wouldn't hurt. Being re-affirmed of the information that you think you know will only serve to reinforce these ideas in your mind -- plus, you just might find some pearls of wisdom that you had not previously considered. The importance of building up your wife never quite struck me until I read "Letters to Philip." I learned that all the little (sincere!) compliments can mean so much to her, and it got me thinking of how the many little things that show her that you do pay attention to her can mean so much more than the (generic) extravagant gifts that are few and far between. The letters taught me that when it comes right down to it, being poor while having a committed relationship where your wife feels secure in herself and in your love for her is far better than possessing all the riches that this world can offer while being in a love-less marriage (not to say that the rich can't have wonderful relationships). And while perhaps extreme, that is such a simple concept, and I feel that it has been further engraved in my mind. My only grievance is that it should have been longer! :) But this is a well-written book, and it gives me hope that one day I'll be in a marriage where my wife and I are joyous and committed even through the storms. And hopefully, I'll have acquired as much relationship knowledge as Dr. Shedd has so that I can pass that knowledge along to my own son.

Summary: an incredible insight for men
Review: In today's world where marriages are falling apart, simplistic yet useful ideals are always needed. This book gives awesome advice to those who are questioning their marriage or wondering what to do when they get married. I feel this book is a necessity for married and unmarried men alike. This book can appeal to wide audiences as it deals with the seemingly never ending questions that come along in a relationship. Whether married, dating, or single, this book gives awesome advice on how to treat a woman respectfully in almost any situation. Wives, if your husband isn't all that you want him to be, this book can't change him, but it more than likely deals with the issues and tells him what to do differently. I highly recommend this book to all men in general. Although some examples may seem outdated, the book covers so many topics in a relationship that we forget as men, that it is always great to have this as a reference for making everyday goals to becoming a better companion.

Summary: The mans book
Review: It was very interesting in how the author came up with so much to say about how to treat a woman. Not only at their homes, but also in public which for some men is something hard to do. It is cool how he tells us what makes women happy. Like after dinner if the man instead of watching T.V. helps his wife with the dishes and giving her a rest. I like how it says that we should treat women as people and not as things. This book was very easy to read and it got the point across to me. Some of the stuff I knew already, but most of it pointed out how I can treat them more with respect. This is a very good book and if you are not good around the ladies and how to treat them, then I strongly recommend this book for you to read. It is so awesome, its like Dumb and Dumber because they treat the women with a lot of respect and they went a long way just to give her a brief case.
