Summary: Very useful book.
Comment: As a professional counselor I have read many of the "relationship" books on the market and Tom's book is far and away among the very best. Love Tactics explains the way humans interact and the psychology behind what works and what does not work. Tactics may not be the most gentle sounding term, but the reality is everything in life has a formula or tactics that make something work. Love Tactics gives accurate information on how people psychologically respond to different situations. One of the most important concepts covered in the book is the ability to maintain a level of appearing indifference in a relationship and to why this allows the other person to respond without feeling "smothered" I have found the book very well written contrary to a previous review, in which the reviewer had problems spelling basic words. An excellent choice for a person who is serious about having a lasting relationship.

Summary: Interesting Read
Comment: This book had some pretty unorthodox ideas. I think that they will only work on someone to get pity from someone. One "tactic" is to be silent on a date that isn't going well. haha Then the girl might be like, "Is everything okay?" and spend a bit more time with him. Other ideas seem good, like having confidence. I prefer "The Rules", since it's hard to tell which ideas are for boys or girls. The Rules have helped me date a TON, so much that I'm taking a break (only 2/week). Good luck. This book is written by guys, so it might be more helpful to them? I'm not qualified to say.

Summary: Older and wiser, I've changed my mind about this book
Comment: I first purchased "Love Tactics" twelve years ago and tried it, with a moderate degree of success on three individuals since then (my only three objects of interest in all that time!). The book, together with its successor "More Love Tactics", essentially attempts to arm the reader with strategies to win over the object of their desire. However, the book(s) has one major fundamental flaw (which the authors sheepishly accept, albeit briefly, in "More LTs") - these tactics will only work, no matter what the authors may contend, on those who are looking for a relationship themselves, and who are the type so few of us are lucky to find: kind, considerate, sensitive, intelligent, passionate people. Most emotionally stable, intelligent people's problems in relationships stem from investing time in those who ultimately are emotionally unavailable, and such individuals cannot and will not respond to these tactics and be with you, no matter how hard you try. I have to also question the motives of the authors. One tactic preaches that premarital sex damages relationships. Well I have news for Messrs. McKnight and Phillips. My earlier "relationships" never got as far as this stage, and I don't go for one night stands. However I recently learned that I have a physical condition for which I will require treatment and which will stop me having intercourse until cured. If had taken the advice in this book, ended up married without having had sex, I would have the double whammy of the physical treatment and possibly enduring emotional torment with a partner also. Anyone who preaches no sex prior to marriage is completely in the dark about the realities of sexual dysfunction in our society and should consider themselves lucky. The harsh reality is that you either meet a compatible partner to spend some or all of your life with, or you don't, and this book is just manipulative mind candy that you won't need to use if you are with the right person in the first place. Avoid.
