MARRY HIM
By looking at everything from culture to biology, in Marry Him, Gottlieb
frankly explores the dilemma that so many women today seem to face--how to
reconcile the strong desire for a husband and family with a list of
must-haves so long and complicated that many great guys get rejected out of
the gate. Here Gottlieb shares her own journey in the quest for romantic
fulfillment, and in the process gets wise guidance and surprising insights
from marital researchers, matchmakers, dating coaches, behavioral
economists, neuropsychologists, sociologists, couples therapists, divorce
lawyers, and clergy--as well as single and married men and women, ranging in
age from their twenties to their sixties. 
Marry Him is an eye-opening, often funny, sometimes painful, and always
truthful in-depth examination of the modern dating landscape, and
ultimately, a provocative wake- up call about getting real about Mr. Right.
