description: The paperback edition of the huge national best–seller in which Dr. Laura Schlessinger–still America's top radio talk show host–gives advice on how women can make their marriage thrive after the wedding bliss subsides.  In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Laura urgently reminds women that to take proper care of their husbands is to ensure themselves the happiness and satisfaction they yearn for in marriage. Women want to be in love, get married and live happily ever after. Yet disrespect for men and disregard for the value, feelings, and needs of husbands has fast become the standard for male–female relations in America. Those two attitudes clash in unfortunate ways to create struggle and strife in what could be a beautiful relationship. Countless women call Dr. Laura, unhappy in their marriages and seemingly at a loss to understand the incredible power they have over their men to create the kind of home life they yearn for.  Dr. Laura's simple principles have changed the lives of millions. Now they can change yours. THE PROPER CARE AND FEEDING OF HUSBANDS have salvaged and revitalized innumerable strained, stagnant, boring, disappointing, annoying, frustrating, and even seemingly dead marriages. I have had women calling almost daily, bitterly criticizing their men, reporting months of seemingly useless martial therapy (aka "gripe hours"), and at their wit's end about what to do with their marriages. After I ask (well, really, nag) them to try just one of the hints found in this book, they call me back amazed at the positive results in their feelings about their men, their husbands' demeanor, and the atmosphere in the home.
