I have to say it left me intrigued. Basically Amy preaches that men (all humans) can be trained the way animals are to do what you ask them. Tricks too!
Here is an excerpt:
The central lesson I learned from exotic animal trainers is that I should reward behavior I like and ignore behavior I don't. After all, you don't get a sea lion to balance a ball on the end of its nose by nagging. The same goes for the American husband.
Back in Maine, I began thanking Scott if he threw one dirty shirt into the hamper. If he threw in two, I'd kiss him. Meanwhile, I would step over any soiled clothes on the floor without one sharp word, though I did sometimes kick them under the bed. But as he basked in my appreciation, the piles became smaller.
So I set out and downloaded a sample from the Kindle bookstore and was hooked! Instead of fighting or nagging about the silly things my husband does that he does not mean, and that can little by little gnaw at my very being, I decided to start reading and see if I can make a difference.
I only started last night but will keep you posted on the results.
