Summary: Even females will get a kick out of this one...
Review: I saw this book in my friend's car while he was giving me a ride and I started flipping threw it. I was immediately amused and intrigued so I borrowed it from him and finished it in one day (he finds this strange). I found the author's writing style engaging and many of his comments useful for both sexes. I decided to buy my boyfriend a copy even though he's not much of a reader because I'm sure he'll enjoy it and maybe even learn something (my fingers are crossed)! In sum, this is a comprehensive and candid book and it would make a great gift for any clueless guy.

Summary: Buy the GQ aubscription instead
Review: The author seems to go in details that are useless at points. The best sections are about living well and looking good. He should have left the exercise tips out, we all can read them in the muscle magazine from where he got it in the first place.This is not to say that the book is not helpful, It certainly is to those who really need help in dressing decently and getting some knowledge other than football scores. On the whole a years worth of GQ subscription would be a much better choice than buying the book.

Summary: Not A Book For Gentlemen
Review: This book is for those who wish to
imitate gentlemen... and the title
is indeed misleading ! I will not say more , as I do not wish
to insult the publishers.
Rating:
Summary: Hillarious and Informative.
Review: This book is great. Given to me by a fraternity brother, the advice inside is wonderful. Although I disagree on a few points about drinking and feel I could have written about 3/4 of the book myself, Friedman combines great humor with priceless hints. How and when to wear a double breasted suit, tips on dating, and much much more.

Summary: Nothing great
Review: This book is mediocre. The book is really more about the author's opinions than advice suitable for applying to life and useful tips. He has some hits, and some misses. The best chapter, Living Large, contains some handy hints and good general knowledge. Likewise, the author develops material that is either irrelevant or treats to tritely. The section on how to goof off at work is silly, and the two sentence description of "How to make friends at work" is useless. The section on clothes, Looking Good, contains basic advice, but needs more diagrams or pictures for better clarification. The chapter of "Feeling Strong", basic health advice, is a collection of elementary advice. The last chapter, "Loving Well" on relationships, is nothing new.
Therefore, this book contains a few gems, but the majority of it is basic advice peddled elsewhere or the author's opinions that may or may not be suitable for your life.

Review: This book is well written and concise, yet it is lacking in some respects. For instince, Friedman focuses on too topics that are too vague and do not apply to everyone. Still, this book is very helpful. I would recommend this book.
