In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Laura urgently reminds women that to take proper care of their husbands is to ensure themselves the happiness and satisfaction they yearn for in marriage. Women want to be in love, get married, and live happily ever after. Yet disrespect for men and disregard for the value, feelings, and needs of husbands has fast become the standard for male-female relations in America. Those two attitudes clash in unfortunate ways to create struggle and strife in what could be a beautiful relationship. Countless women call Dr. Laura, unhappy in their marriages and seemingly at a loss to understand the incredible power they have over their men to create the kind of home life they yearn for. Now, in The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands, Dr. Laura shows you -- with real-life examples and real-life solutions -- how to wield that power to attain all the sexual pleasure, intimacy, love, joy, and peace you want in your life. Dr. Laura's simple principles have changed the lives of millions. Now they can change yours.
Best manual for women who want to understand their men 
I give this book (along with a similar book by another author targeted to men) to young engaged couples (and recommend it widely to others).
A lot of the men read her book. They rave about how well she gets it. She says "men are simple creatures". The men agree (we are simple creatures, truley we are). She explains how to interact successfully with men. The men say she has it exactly right.
Plain and Simple Advice
I read this book without any previous knowledge of who the author was or her background/beliefs/credentials; without reading the reviews and not even being recommended to read it. I read it because it seemed to have useful advice for a woman like me who was not sure what she was doing wrong to her marriage but wanted to fix it.
I do not in any way consider myself conservative, I am not religious, I am not even Christian! Yet, the points made in this book opened my mind to what was wrong and helped me to change my attitude in a way that improved my marriage Immediately...and has helped many, many times since. I keep this book close and read parts of it whenever I find myself feeling selfish, stubborn or bitterly discontent with life and home.
The advice is simple and easy to follow and puts the role of a housewife with children into better perspective. It helped me to change my mind and be the wife I would want if I were in my husbands position. In return, the rewards have been overflowing and I am happier than ever.
Be open to the message and forget where it's from. I don't particularly like the author (now that I know more about her) but my opinion is this, I don't have to like the members of a band to enjoy their song and I don't have to like the actors to enjoy a movie, so why discount this book just because of who wrote it? Read it and improve your marriage.
Dr Laura
Amazon delivery was quick, the book is even better than I thought it would be. I was looking for a way to turn my mother's attitude around, and Dr. Laura has the courage to tell it like it is, I really took her words to heart.
I love you and I love me 
I am a wife and mother and I totally agree with Dr. Laura's assessments in this book. Other book that helps me about this topic isI Love You. Now What?: Falling in Love is a Mystery, Keeping It Isn't
