I liked this book, but it is a little technical. None of my friends that I suggested to read this book likes it, but I found it to be very useful and to bring up some truths about dating. I keep it on my bookshelf as a great reference. Let me know your comments if you read this.

I doubt I learned anything really new from this book, although it offers a few helpful tidbits here and there. It also offers advice which may or may not be good in helping to get a lover and/or find a mate. This book is supposedly based on actual scientific evidence, but that is only a part of it. This is neither a scholarly nor a popular review of the literature on the subject of mating dances. Lowndes presents a variety of techniques, occasionally backed up by studies, on how to find that special someone. Although it is written for both genders, Lowndes is a woman and the outlook of a bourgeois female who wants to be high class predominates. In fact it encourages one to be a little manipulative and do things like make lots of compliments (whether you really mean them or not) and try to present yourself as the kind of person your `quarry' might be looking for. It gives suggestions on how to appear classy and what to say to wealthy people.

There were some good pointers, though: men need to move right away if they are interested; watch porno made by women for love‑making tips; the six things that count in the meet market (looks, money, status, knowledge, style, and personality/nature); and what the steps are in the `dance of intimacy' (nonverbal signal, talk, turning, touching, synchronization).

It was great to read a scientific research book that wasn't dry and boring and bogged down with terms that most people don't understand.
The flip side is it started out fairly interesting then fell into what seems to me a whole bunch of game playing trying to land your 'Quarry' as the people you are trying to snare are called. It seemed like most of the book was spent trying to manipulate your 'Quarry' into falling in love with you and not being your true self.
It was summed up in the last few sentences and I quote the last paragraph, 'Spike your arrow with this wisdom and the techniques that science has spawned. But as you take aim at your Quarry, never forget the artistry, the creativity, and the magic of love. A great performer studies techniques for a lifetime but, flooded by the warmth of the spotlight, those grueling years of practice fade into the past. Triumphant performers give themselves to the moment, and let the magic unfold naturally. So it is with romance. Study and practice the techniques to make somebody fall in love with you But when the moment arrives, give yourself to it. Follow your instincts and obey your heart.'
These words to me negated the whole book and with that you don't need to read this book. I will save you the time and say, be yourself, learn to compromise on the things that need compromise, communicate, stay true to yourself,and enjoy the love journey.

I wasn't looking for it; was shared a copy which I read sceptically... but end up liking!
Althought not exceptional, I found it way less toxic than the general PUA advice every "seduction" guru wannabe from the 00s encouraged to take, ending up seeing women as a generic goal/object.
I laught at those who claim it's manipulative - don't know what they expected from that title.
I find it useful as a way to polish some behaviours that might break connection with your interlocutor, as it is something we should all want to be better at, at certain situations. Also liked that it reflected the gender differences in that sense.

Hello my Review readers...

This book doesn't talk about the qualities or the ways of which you can find the right partner for you, but instead it talks about how to pursued the partner that you have already chose to fall in love with you.

You will find many great techniques, ways and dos and don'ts when it comes to have someone fall in love with you...

Lovely thing about the book is the great amount of examples and the easy wording the writer puts it down for general readers. And quite lovely is the real life experiences that the writer have had on her own life too.

I definitely would recommend reading the book and learn from it... I personally believe that true love falls within the Godly plans and destinies that have been given to us, yet when we find that partner we ought to be ready to take the route.

This book was a bit funny and frightening. What scares me is that people are out there actually following this advice! :-o I read it out of curiousity, I mean the title is intriguing. But it's full of manipulative advice on how to make someone "think" you like them and to get them to "feel" like they are in love with you.

What I came away with is a knowledge of what to be aware of the next time I go out with someone. If they start going through the steps outlined in this book - RUN!!
