The wisdom in this book is very deep! It does not correlate with Disney and Hollywood images of love and relationships, but is rather based on knowhow (Game!) obtained from a century or more of do-or-die relationships on the streets. You will not find this information in psychology books or doctoral theses in sociology, because those people do not have the real life experience it takes to know these things. You will however have to scale the information down to suit your own world, but I for one like to get extreme-case explanations. I generally hold Nasheed's writings in high regard, but this is the best book he has written in my opinion. And it's for men and women both! (Nasheed probably regrets having made such a biased title!) One point of criticism would be that Nasheed is a bit focused on bling-bling, money, and status, but that's just his own lifestyle that shines through I guess, and the reader can choose to ignore it. Highly recommended - if you can distill from it what you need!

But Black women have to take it one step further and expand their options to include all races...

Black Women Deserve Better

Nasheed knows exactly what he's talking about!This book is telling young women they have a choice; either you're going to be a statistic by making DUMB decisions, getting involved with "boys" who have no future or vision about their own lives who only want to "hit it and quit it", ending up with child out of wedlock that you never wanted by a so-called man you never loved who never loved you OR you can get "game" by increasing your knowledge of yourself and the world by learning as much as you can, getting your money right and being in a position to have better options in life and attracting a real man.

Life is supposed to be about constant improvement to ones life, changing your current situation for the better. Not accepting complacency and satisfied with being just another young, unwed mother who is further extending the dysfunction of the american family. GET THIS BOOK!!!

What Is It About?

This is Tariq's version of the Art of Mackin for Women. It promises to give women advice about men, dating, and relationships.

What Did I Get Out Of It?

I learned what king flex has to say about dating and seduction and got to hear what he advises women to do.

The Good News

The book is excellent and does deliver. It spells out the problems with men, the problems with women, what women really want, and why they think they want what they say they want. It also details the different type of males / females that exist in the dating world. The book is basically a hand book on dating and relationships and should be required reading for all women and most men.

The Bad News

There is relatively little bad news concerning this book. It is a bit short and I leisurely read it over the course of a weekend but, I consider that a good thing. Tariq is short and to the point and doesn't attempt to sugar coat things or pander to women with this book.

The Bottom Line

Any aspiring Mack man or women should have this book. It breaks down women and men and will help both parties do better with the opposite sex.

While I understand the basis to his philosophy, I feel that in repeating the stereotypes he perpetuates negativity sub-consciously. The laws of yesterday are not the same today. While he gives an overall view there is little uplifting and solution based strategy offered in this book. Does every group have it's faults? Yes, but if you have so much knowledge why not churn out something of higher value. Overall- smart brother, but I think he (and we) can do better.
