Description
The key to understanding men is in understanding how they relate to their gadgets. Just because they may seem to show more interest in their computers... or their remote controls... or their fancy watches or their power mowers or their stereos... doesn't mean that their toys are really the most important things in their life. In Boys and Their Toys, bestselling author Bill Adler, Jr. explains how men use toys to assert their independence and freedom, relieve stress, connect to their lost childhood, and even express their nurturing side (without having to admit it). Written in Adler's fun, humorous style, this book helps readers understand what makes their men tick... and grow closer with them in the process.
