Book Description
Bestselling author and star of the #1 syndicated TV show, Judy Sheindlin has ruled on hundreds of cases involving relationship disputes over the years. Now she shares her solutions to problems that plague many relationships today.Very different from what it was even twenty years ago, the traditional nuclear family now includes exes, ex-in-laws, merged families, stepchildren, friends from previous marriages and relationships, and even pets. This can create a complex web of relationships, easily becoming a knot in today's world. Judge Judy unravels these knots for everyone in a tangle.From the decision to marry to writing a will, Judge Judy tackles all the relationship issues that drive people crazy...and sometimes to court.

5.0 out of 5 stars
She's the boss, applesauce!!!,
By mark bickerton (Richmond, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: You're Smarter Than You Look: Uncomplicating Relationships in Complicated Times (Paperback)
In her characteristic sarcastic wit and dry humor style, Judge Judy addresses some serious topics with this entertaining book. Bringing her perspective from many years of adjudicating Family Court issues, Ms. Sheindlin could qualify as a psychiatrist as much as she is a judge. Written in a "Dear Abby" format, Judy answers many letters apparently written to her regarding family disputes over the years; an interesting twist, though, is that you get to read both of the disputing parties view on the issues, with Judy then rendering her opinion and legal advice.There is, however, a slight undertone of "male bashing" throughout which, although perhaps occassionally justified, gets a bit annoying, and leads me to believe that the intended audience for this book is largely female. But anyone concerned about the social ills afflicting family life in the US will benefit from Judge Judy's unique viewpoints and her genuine attempt to improve the current status quo. Judge Judy, you go girl!!!

same book 2 titles!,
By sally tarbox - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: You're Smarter Than You Look: Uncomplicating Relationships in Complicated Times (Paperback)
This is one of those annoying cases where one book (otherwise known as Keep it Simple Stupid) is issued under 2 titles and the unwary purchaser can end up with the same book twice.But in book terms this is a very readable little work covering all sorts of family issues. In each scenario the 2 protagonists (husband & wife, mother & teenage child or whatever) each put their case over an issue and Judge Judy delivers her opinion at the end
