Summary: why you fall in love
Review: I read this book because I fell in love with someone 10 years ago when I was married and because I was married I did nothing about it. I could never figure out why I still was in love. I have been divorced two years and I can't seem to find anyone else. SO I bought this book and I discovered why I feel the way I do. I did every thing in this book with out knowing any thing about the process Of falling in love- this book showed me WHY! I feel the way I do after all these years. This book should be rewritten for the married and lost in love. The information is right on.

Summary: The science of love
Review: A lot of people fall in "love" for practical, calculated, and even cynical reasons which they disguise, to themselves as well as others, as "random" elements based on luck and fate. Love is supposedly idealistic and blind, but people tend to fall in love with people of their own level of physical attractiveness and of similar material aims. Financial and materialistic matters clearly come into it a lot when females select love partners - a tradition which has never really died off, just as the male focus on appearance and physical attributes has never altered.
Some of us, however, are being left behind in this area, and are still naively blundering along, falling in love for all the wrong reasons, or, worst of all, for no reason at all. I find myself falling for women just on the basis of a random smile or the way they look at me or laugh or flick their hair. For this reason I find myself falling in love with women who aren't necessarily particularly attractive in social terms, or don't necessarily share any of my attitudes or aims in regards to career and finance.
A book like this could therefore be a godsend to old-fashioned folk like me, who are falling in love for the wrong reasons. Rather than allowing love to happen randomly, or for that matter through business-like love arrangements in the aristocratic tradition, we now have the power to manipulate an actual love-response in whoever we choose, by encouraging the production of phenylethylamine in their brain. This is surely the most promising aid to self-gratification in the area of gender-relations since those "x-ray specs" they used to advertise in comics. No more do we need to worry about our physical appearance, social status, and wealth (and lack thereof) in seeking love partners. Science-nerds can finally gain the upper hand in the dating game, as their skills in chemical manipulation lead them out of the science lab and into the bedroom! Also, the mental pain and anguish of shallow one-night-stands and unsatisfying relationships based on lust are a thing of the past, now that we can chemically manufacture real love! Unhappy marriages everywhere can benefit from these discoveries; older couples whose passion has run out, or couples who are together for reasons other than love in the first place, can now discover or rediscover the passion of the real thing, just by playing with each other's phenylethylamine levels.

Summary: The best How To... book out there
Review: Very well organized and written, this book is an easy and entertaining read. It is very useful in isolating the simple technics we already know and using them more conscientiously and efficiently. I have read many books on the subject of what to do and what not to do to get a man/woman, and this is by far the best. Money and time well worth it!

Summary: You have got to be kidding...right?
Review: When I first read the title, I thought is was a dating Bible for losers. However, I agree with another reviewer, the title is misleading. It's really about being confident, projecting that confidence and how others perceive you. This book WON'T make anyone fall in love with you. BUT, you can use this book to change how your prospective partners perceive you. Even if you only build close friendships, this book is a good buy.

Summary: Don't Be Single Without It
Review: Many well-educated experts can't get their information across to the average person, because their writing style is more effective as a sleeping pill than a self-help manual. Leil Lowndes does the seemingly impossible in this book-she intertwines behavioral studies in a fun-to-read book. Nodding off is never an option, as she takes you on the exciting journey of capturing your quarry. And unlike some "experts" who only deal from their own personal experience, Ms. Lowndes constantly cites unbiased studies to back her claims. As an author and an avid reader, I love her use of language. "Hunters and Huntresses pursuing pedigreed prey should move differently from those stalking a wild cat. The polo-and-port set has a very different body language from the bowling-and-beer crowd." Her ability to paint a vivid picture and her use of alliteration makes her as much an expert with the English language as she is with relationships. As a dating expert myself, I am giving her the highest compliment when I say that hers is the best dating book on the market (aside from mine, of course!). Bottom Line-don't be single without it!

Summary: Better the second time around, great read
Review: I've had this book for over a year. I've actually had it in the 'to-get-rid-of-pile.' Maybe I wasn't in the right place when I first got the book. It's one of those books you should read before and again while 'dating,' as a refresher. At the moment, it's a work in progress, I'm trying out her techniques on an unsuspecting male. It's very interesting to understand the inner workings of the human mind and how little it takes to change the course of one's future. At any rate, it is very entertaining, helpful and hopefully, will work! It is a must read for males and females alike.

Summary: If only I knew this when I was in 8th grade.
Review: It seems simple - quite the contrary we are Oblivious. This book brings deep insight only a scientist would know with presentation from a person who probably has 60 % more Corpus Colosseum than us dummies. I would suggest focus on the similarity section and the ego section. You will thank GOD (actually beautiful and super smart Goddess Leil Lowndes) and maybe my review. The only problem I face is fear - from the girl I'm attracted to the most: she sences I seem different; maybe for the best.

Summary: Excellent book, great incite!
Review: I have read the book and used these techniques at a party, even though most of the women knew me they were friendlier towards me then usual. Like anything else you have to perfect your techniques and be aware of what works and what doesn't.
...
I have read other reviews and one stated that they picked up a rageaholic, all I can say is the techniques worked very successfully and the outcome is never guaranteed, it is like purchasing a Corvette and complaining that they wrecked it because the car was to fast for them to handle. There is an old fictional story about a person that sold love potions for $10 per bottle, this man wanted women to fall in love with him so he paid $30 for 3 bottles. About a week later he frantically went by the shop and noticed the shop was closed and there was a sign that showed the shopkeepers home address. He went by the shopkeepers house and it was this beautiful mansion. "You have to help me" replied the guy who purchased the 3 bottles "those 3 women are about to kill me. You need to break the spell." Well replied the shopkeeper "that will cost you a $1,000 per bottle." a thousand dollars a bottle! Yes, how do you think I can afford this mansion!
The moral here be careful who you use these techniques on. I picked up a women using these techniques very successfully now I can't get rid of her. This is not the books fault. Remember the title is "How to make ANYONE fall in Love with you" this includes rageaholics, and dependant people as well as white collar professionals and successful people, use this love potion sparingly! Excellent book I would highly recommend it.
