So far Gray has produced Mars and Venus in the Bedroom, Mars and Venus in Love, Mars and Venus Together Forever. Ask about future books, and his answer is, frankly, a little scary: Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, Kids Are from Heaven, a parenting book due out in 1998; Daddy's from Mars, Mommy's from Venus; MAFM...
