Synopsis: In Men & Women, bestselling author Dr. Larry 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. What does it take to get along for a lifetime? According to Crabb, 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, becoming what he calls "other-centered."
