According to Strauss, the clandestine society of men he describes here take wagers in clubs and bars throughout the Western world over just who can chalk up the most Casanova-like quantities of pickups and seductions. But this isn't merely for the thrill of an army of sexual conquests -- all of this is coded and organised according to an almost military-style ritual, with an elaborate series of rules and regulations that the participants rigorously follow. Strauss went undercover in this glamorous world, and learned the secrets of these top-drawer seducers.

Dont read it the book is sexist on both sides, homophobic, terribly written (he spent most of the book just reiterating the same 5 points) And the advice is frankly terrible the only good nugget is possibly his advice of be confident but he stretches that into, go around sexually harrasing every woman you see. His advice doesn't even work the only chance is because he tells you to go to so many women you are bound to find one willing to sleep with you. Also neil strauss later released the book ‘the truth' I suggest you read it it goes through his realisation that all the advice in the book is bad and that erik and people like him are sad sad people clawing for attention
