Rating:  Summary: ANGLING FOR A NEW APPROACH TO LOVE? Review: ANGLING FOR A NEW APPROACH TO LOVE? New Book Shows Women How to Reel 'Em In! There are a lot of fish in the sea, or so well-meaning folks tell disappointed single women. But no one tells them why the "good catches" always get away. Until now. In Men Are Like Fish: What Every Woman Needs to Know About Catching a Man, author Steve Nakamoto helps women gain fresh insights into how to capture the love of their life while putting the playfulness and passion back into the relationship-building process. Men Are Like Fish developed out of Nakamoto's quest to understand how and why certain women are successful at romantic relationships while others are not. Equipped with astute observational skills honed during his years as a trainer for motivational guru Tony Robbins, Nakamoto noted that it was not necessarily the most beautiful, intelligent or otherwise ideally endowed women who possessed the ability to attract and capture a man's heart. Ideal for women, Men Are Like Fish, is for those who want to recapture the innocence and sport of life and the joy of a loving, committed relationship. Imaginative readers seeking a departure from run-of-the-mill self-help books will be delighted by this book's clever collection of pithy quotes, sage advice and humorous cartoons. Filled with the timeless ring of truth, readers will refer to Men Are Like Fish time and time again.
Rating:  Summary: Fun metaphor for getting a committed partner Review: "Men Are Like Fish: What Every Woman Needs to Know About Catching a Man" is a book about how to get a man to become totally committed to you. Set in a fishing metaphor it is an entertaining read while covering the dynamics of male/female relationships. The text contains various tests (Big Fish Test, Bait Self-Quiz, etc.) that are insightful and fun. It's enjoyable to watch the author continue to develop the fishing metaphor for all the situations he discusses - spooking away men, favorite fishing holes, the keeper, landing the big fish, etc. While he doesn't expound on anything new the fishing metaphor makes it fun while allowing the reader to look at various aspects of the dating ritual in a new way.
Rating:  Summary: Fish are Fish - Men Aren't Review: This book's recent second edition (I didn't read the first) is amazingly trite. I get the impression that Nakamoto had a tiny kernel of an idea and decided, somewhat unsuccessfully, to expand it into a "self-help" advice book. I did, however, enjoy seeing how many clichés (often conflicting the sense of previously-cited ones) he could pack into his work. The title's metaphor makes one wonder why, if a man were truly a like a fish, a woman would want to land one: if a woman actually caught a fish, she certainly wouldn't plan to marry it, she'd be more likely pan-fry it. But perhaps the author unwittingly expresses my opinion best when he says, apparently without being aware of the pertinence to his own work, "[a] smart woman should always be on guard against bad relationship advice, especially from men." To which I can only add, amen!
