Review # 1 was written on 2016-06-13 00:00:00 Kathi Shepard This book has a lot of great information and perspective to offer concerning the Celts. I learned quite a bit, especially about the Welsh and their heritage. Yet, I was distracted at many points by sloppy editing and writing that was full of poorly constructed sentences and unnecessary repetitions. Also, Evans often presents supposed experts to counter the claims of other historians and anthropologists, yet fails to properly introduce these "experts" and fully explore both sides of the argument. For someone writing with intellectual overtones who is attempting to present a work of academic merit, glazing over subjects of debate in a few sentences while declaring a whole pack of historians to be wrong on a particular subject is just lazy. If you believe yourself to be right, elaborate please.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-13 00:00:00 Daniel Horton I know that this book is surrounded by vehement controversy. After my husband read it, it was as though he came alive for the first time. Curious, I picked up the book myself. Though there are sections that I would drastically edit (and so would my husband), I found the heart of Eldredge's message incredibly moving, necessary, and paradigm-altering. I was truly astonished that this "man's man" would have such a perfect grasp of women and their needs and desires. I have consulted with other women who have read this book cover to cover, and they, too, feel that Eldredge truly understands a woman's heart. I do not suggest that we take all his advice literally, nor do I think he meant it that way, but this idea of setting men free to be men is something I can definitely get behind. One note: only read this book if you are starting with the assumption that men and women are fundamentally different. He does not address the philosophy that men and women are the same except for nurturing practices.
