A veteran of the comedy circuit and in demand for cruise ship line appearances, comedy clubs and corporate events, Darrell Joyce's cutting edge style is guaranteed to leave audience's doubled over with laughter. And now, Darrell's new book, MisInformation: The Female Perpetuated Myths About Men is guaranteed to do the same for readers. The book dispels the myths women perpetuate about men. Nothing is sacred either as Darrell examines every side of the subject, from deadbeat dads to – well, you'll just have to read the book to find out! The goal is clear: To show once and for all that there are indeed many good men out there, and that they're not all married, gay or living with their mothers. This is a book for men, but women would foolish not to read it.
In reading MisInformation: The Female Perpetuated Myths About Men, women will learn that there are a bunch of great guys out there if they just stop believing everything other women say. They will laugh out loud in private at Darrell's hilarious yet poignant observations, grouse about the book's outrageous truths to their friends, and hold out silent hope that indeed, there are some great guys still to be found, somewhere, out there.

Customer Reviews
Insightful and Informative
I thoroughly enjoyed Misinformation. I've had the pleasure of seeing Joyce perform live many times, and his skill as a comedian promised this to be an entertaining read. What struck me, however, was the level of insight and information underneath the issues he exposed. This is not some guy running his mouth off -- this is a study. This is a work that has come from years of astute observations, intense research, and personal experience.
That being said, Joyce's style is blunt and aggressive. This book is real. He doesn't sugarcoat things, and he doesn't shy away from his points for fear of offending. He tells it like he sees it, and for that I respect his honesty and courage. This book is a breath of fresh air in an age that is so hyper-sensitive to political correctness. If you put this book down because a word or phrase offends you, in the long run you're really denying yourself-- he just has too many excellent points.
Although Misinformation looks a bit intimidating, the effort is well worth it. You will see it's underlying themes every day of your life. Instead of chuckling at the overweight woman wearing the T-shirt that says, "Too pretty to work," you will shake your head at the much larger societal problem she represents.
Thanks, Darrell-- can't wait to read volume two!
Awesome Book
This book is a must for both men and women. (It might be for gay people too if you are into that sort of thing because they want to be "married" these days.)Darrell examines both sides of the realtionship from experiences and observations. I read this book cover to cover and will read it again because its funnnier than hell, just like his stage act! I can't wait for the second book!

Some Truth
MisInformation hits home in many ways. In reading the chapters (which are cleverly titled), I found myself wincing at some of the remarks, not because they are hard hitting and direct, but rather they are true in some regards. I think the key point made in this book is that it is not directed to all...let me stress all women, but those times I found the dialog assaulting were when I seen myself doing or saying those exact things mentioned. I think it is a good tool for men in respect to finding out why women think there are no "good" men left, but it turned out to be an eye opener for me as a woman. I can't wait to read volume 2.
