"Ms. Venker's contribution to humanity, to families, to marriages, to women is huge." -- Dr. Laura Schlessinger, author of six New York Times bestsellers
"Suzanne Venker presents a refreshing guide to a happy marriage. While she takes aim at alpha females, the untold secret is that this book is for all women. The insights and advice she gives will save many marriages." -- Dr. Scott Haltzman, Distinguished Fellow, American Psychiatric Association, author of The Secrets of Happily Married Women
WHAT IF GIVING UP CONTROL MEANS GETTING THE LOVE YOU WANT?
America is in love with the alpha female. She's the quintessential modern woman--assertive, razor sharp, and fully in control. Her success in the marketplace is undeniable, a downright boon to society. But what happens when the alpha woman gets married?
She becomes an alpha wife, of course.
An alpha wife is in charge of everything and everyone. She is, quite simply, the Boss. The problem is, no man wants a boss for a wife. That type of relationship may work for a spell, but it will eventually come crashing down.
Since 1970, just as women became more and more powerful outside the home--more alpha--the divorce rate has quadrupled. And it is women who lead the charge. Today, 70% of divorce is initiated by wives.
Do men just make lousy husbands? Not at that rate, says cultural critic and Fox News contributor Suzanne Venker. The truth is that women weren't raised to be wives. No one told them their real power lies in their femininity.
Being 'strong and independent' sounds good on the surface, but it often translates to being difficult--and no man wants that. There's an art to loving a man, and any woman can master it.
An alpha woman herself, Venker learned how to be a wife the hard way--through trial and error. Lots of error. And here's what she knows today: The set of skills a woman needs to pursue a career, or even to raise children, is the exact set of skills that will destroy her marriage.
The Alpha Female's Guide to Men & Marriage gives women who are used to being in charge the tools they need to make their marriages less competitive and more complementary. Part memoir, part advice, this brave book argues that while marriage is more challenging for the alpha woman, it's possible to find peace in your marriage.
In fact, it's easier than you think.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
