  Just because you're born with a Y chromosome doesn't excuse you from cleaning the bathroom, especially in this day and age when time's at a premium and partners have to be, well partners. To help men pull their weight is Dad's Own Housekeeping Book , the book of everything your mother never taught you about taking care of the house. From daily hands-on experience, David Bowers, a stay-at-home dad, writes a housekeeping handbook for guys, done in a guy's way and in direct guy style. You'll learn how to approach housekeeping as if it were garden work - only indoors: creating efficient systems, conquering clutter like a combat mission, the aeronautically-correct way to load a dishwasher (just like loading the car boot). You'll get things like The 30-Minute Pre-In-Laws-Arrival Assault on Dirt Program, the One Minute Bed-Making Technique, and Dad's Own Stain Removing Treatment. It's about getting it done quickly and efficiently, not perfectly, and there are no unwelcome sidebars about dust ruffles or window treatments.
