Abridged audio version. Read by Larry Crabb.
What does it take to get along for a lifetime? Men and women share a deadly problem that kills good relating. The problem is this: we are committed, first of all, to ourselves. Each of us, without blushing, holds fast to an overriding concern for our own well-being.
Sharing people's stories and personal anecdotes, Crabb explores how we can turn away from ourselves and toward each other, how we can become what he calls "other-centered."
In Men and Women, Dr. Crabb maintains that men and women are different in important ways that, if understood and honored, can lead to a deep enjoyment of one another, an enjoyment that can last forever.

— Asher, 9/23/2010" Meh. I liked the first part about selfishness. But the second half (the part that was about the differences) was vague. It's not that I didn't agree with what Crabb said. It's that he didn't say anything at all. "

— Josh, 1/24/2009" This book scared the daylights out of the new and young convert I was. Even pastors I spoke to, had share similar sentiments. "
