b'Waddup, book nerds! Welcome back for Season 5. This week we read Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus by John Gray. Published in 1992, this book was a worldwide phenomenon with 121 weeks on the NYT bestseller list and over 15 million copies sold. Translated in over 40 languages, this book earned Gray almost $18 million. It\\u2019s also lead to themed vacations, a one-man Broadway show, and a TV sitcom! But WHY? We break it down.
