The Concise Bachelor's Manual: The Gentleman's Guide To Separation, Divorce And Living Single: Including Handy Checklists-..

There were once a number of shelves (when there were shelves) in a bookstores (when there were bookstores) offering all manner of relationship self-help advice to women, including fostering and understanding relationships with men. There is little comparable literature addressed to a male audience. And there are a number of reasons for that, including the fact that men, as a rule, have minimal interest in discussions of relationships and even less interest in reading about them. Which is precisely why the time has come for The Concise Bachelor's Manual: The Gentleman's Guide to Separation, Divorce and Living Single--Including Handy Checklists. The book unnecessarily addresses this vacuum with clarity and stunning comedic panache. Irreverent, snarky, and trenchant, it includes information in a form that is appealing to men, including exhaustive checklists and occasional Roman numerals. A spot-on parody of self-help books that proceeds to alienate principal genders, many ethnic groups and the various professionals specializing in relationships and in the terminations thereof, this book ostensibly contains practical advice. In reality, it contains something else. What exactly that is...is up to you.
