The Unplugged Alpha Paperback – November 26, 2020

Navigating through any book allows every reader to glean what they need and carry away what they want as they move through life journey.In The Unplugged Alpha, Richard Cooper has outlined a guidebook for men's success in the dating world with many tips, strategies and people to avoid that is easy to read and practical in use.The chapter on women to avoid is a highlight that stood out for me, since I've personally been on the receiving end of an unsuccessful relationship while ignoring red flags. Another literary highlight is focusing on self-improvement and personal growth, since having a strong foundation personally will allow you to have success while dating.Critics pine on the belief that this is a misogynistic booklet that attacks women and teaches men to play tricks, while others even attack the author through their words. I would contend to believe that those who offer opinions that differ is that it all depends on how you look at things.Buy the book and decide for yourself.As for my rating, I give it 5 stars based on the readability, practicality and ease of implementation. So that does it here for me... so until next time, this is Robbie the Review Guy wishing you success on all of life's adventures.

I think I am with a lot of men who have watched Rich Cooper's videos on YouTube have taken his words to heart, and to improve oneself for the better. There's a ton of wisdom here that if you've watched Rich's videos, you're gonna be either shocked at first, but accepting later on. For those who may have just stumbled upon the world of "the manosphere", this is a solid book to start out. Rich writes in a straightforward manner that anyone can pick up and read. He is talking to you not at you.What are my favorite chapters? My few favorites are on owning a motorcycle as a sign of manhood, why smart men don't marry, joining a dojo to learn a martial art, the twenty red flags that men must avoid when dealing with women, and when men go their own way (MGTOW). These chapters are a solid pick of what Rich has to offer.This is NOT a book that you can just read once cover to cover and leave it. Personally, I read it at least once a week to refresh my mind on the drive to become a better man. And this is NOT the only book that you should read on being a man. There's Rollo Tomassi's "The Rational Male" series and Aaron Clarey's books are also treasure troves of masculine wisdom.As for possible recommendations for a future book, I felt Rich could have delved more into the motorcycle chapter, as I am a motorcycle aficionado. That would also include the dojo, or mastering violence chapter. The second complaint I had is maybe in another print, he could have a couple pages of books that he would recommend people who are starting out in their reprogramming to jump into, probably in the end of the book as a bibliography. I do know that Rich is planning a second book soon, so I'm looking forward to what Rich has in store.For the man who struggles to attract women, the man who struggles with depression or a sense of direction, read this book. I think sometimes a little shock therapy in the printed page, an audiobook, or Rich's videos can help you get to the right path of becoming a man of excellence. But you have to take action from what you read. Reading can only get you so far, the second part is to go forward to get to that place that is excellence.As Rich often says, "Chase excellence, not women."

This book has changed my life. Every single man should read this book. It’s a guide to achieving masculinity, self respect and relationship success. Don’t even think about reading any other book than this. Also, you should follow his YouTube channel.

Highly recommended to all men getting into the dating world. This book is also great for men that went through divorce process and feeling lost, tired and hopeless. Rich showed what he went thought to educate us in the early chapter. He explained everything in a direct way with examples. This book will give clear understanding to all men what they are up against and going thought. This is a book that actually saves lives of men that have given up. Nice to see that men like Rich who went thought the trenches are educating men to be men again and making them stronger again with a purpose. A sincere thank you to Mr. Richard Cooper!!!!

Wow! Every chapter had some points I agreed with entirely and points which disgusted me. My female friends often have said men have a little book they all read which women don't have access to. This book is as close as you will get. If you are a single woman wanting a moral relationship, read this book. It will help you know what to avoid. Part of this are his good points, like keep your value, don't have casual sex (minimum). if you find a good man, don't divorce him. You ruin him and all his friends for everyone else. It is disgusting and immoral. Don't bend the rules for the "alphas". It may be harder when you really like the guy. Sister, that's when it counts. In short, women's moral downfall in the sexual revolution is causing a pushback that is far worse than what went on in earlier times. On the bad side, this is alrm bell scary. Don't accept being a plate. You are a human being, not a plate. Ask questions and get commitment first. Don't get tattooed. I mean, come on, that shows no self respect. Don't feel bad about telling him not to brush his teeth on the carpet. I can see not being able to sort laundry, but that's what I would expect to tell a six year old.The main theme is that women are replaceable. This is what the sexual revolution got us. Before, there were many, many marriages that lasted until death where the partners really valued each other, stood by each other in sickness, and ultimately died within a year of each other. We have lost that totally. My response to dating men under these conditions would be a statement made by a reader of a "Cosmopolitan" article, "I have been celibate for five years. Thanks for reminding me why."I am presently happily married and intend to stay that way. This book will not help you in that area.

Simple, short, concise and straight to the point. That's how I'd review this book.If you already watch Richie's videos on Youtube, you'll be familiar with pretty much everything he has to say in the book. Nevertheless, I really liked the way he approached every topic, gave some insights about the dating market we live in today, and how you have to do the work on yourself to become the best version of yourself. Not for the sake of women, but as a way to live the life of your dreams, and women will be a byproduct of that. Also, if you are in a Long Term Relationship or you intend to get married, then this book is a MUST for you, as it will open your eyes to the dangers of marriage living in todays laws. I found this to be an easy and relaxed read. I'm a brazilian and my english is intermediate to advanced, and I had no problem at all reading, and I laughed hard everytime I read "Chad Thundercock" haha.Anyways, on a scale on one to ten, I'd give a 9 for this book.

This book was written by Richard Cooper to unapologetically help men unplug from all of the lies they've been programmed to believe all their life and up to the point that brought them to read his book. This programming of young men is otherwise known as having a "Blue Pill" mindset.I'm personally familiar with all of the book's concepts and so much more from others like Rollo Tomassi, Warren Farrell, and Greg Adams, just to name a few, for many years now, and I wanted to read it and support Rich's work in helping men of any age unplug and become the best versions of themselves they could be. Below is my review.This book is the c-o-l-d h-a-r-d t-r-u-t-h about the "Red Pill" (RP) mindset that distillates all of what Rich knows and has learned and experienced over the years in taking the RP about life, women, relationships, business and so much more from a man's point of view. It's not written for women but women may find it very insightful for sure. It's about seeing the world through a Red Pill lens as a man in his pursuit of chasing excellence."Do. The. Work!": This is what Rich is best known for from his videos and in his book. Men, you have the burden of performance and there are no days off. You must do the work to become who you are. Men must become. Women just are."Be your own mental point of origin.": This is what every man in the pursuit of being the best version of a man he can be must-have and maintain for himself and his mindset. His book explains why this is important for all men to learn and do. You can never be in a position to help anyone if you're not chasing excellence or your sole purpose, but instead chasing women and things that add no value to you and your future."Hypergamy. Accept what a woman will never ever be to you as a man.": This is an important lesson on the truth about female nature that all men must understand and fully accept. You must accept a woman for what she will never ever be to you as a man. And that's okay! Rich helps men learn to love women for what they really are to a man and will teach men how to love women as masculine and loving men in only the way men can be to a woman and towards themselves. Human nature will never change and this book helps men remain objective, stoic, and sometimes indifferent to the things they can't change about intersexual gender dynamics between heterosexual men and women. The book also gives actionable advice on doing what's in your control as a man to participate in the sexual marketplace as a masculine man that builds and maintains a strong and masculine frame with modern women.These are just a few of the many great points Rich tackles in his book "The Unplugged Alpha" and I'm so glad it's the number one book in 'Divorce'. It needs to be read and reread over and over again for many men so heavily ego invested in a life that will never ever serve them as men. Unplug from all the lies you've been fed as men.This book is THE most affordable way to pick Rich's brain on what he knows and it's the best ROI you'll ever get from Rich with actionable advice you can start doing today. Don't just read his book. Study it. Absorb it. Dwell on it. Put it down. Pick it up and read it again in a few weeks. Figure out what needs to change about you as a man RIGHT NOW and TAKE ACTION RIGHT NOW. Your best life starts NOW!This book is highly recommended. It's a must-read for men of all ages, especially young men. Women may find it insightful on how to be a good woman to a man and what to look for in a really good man for a fulfilling long-term relationship.Above all else, you've got to "Do. The. Work!" - Richard Cooper EIC

Hi Rich. I red your book and wanted to say thanks man for your words. I see you have done some good research for writing it and providing value for guys out there. Good job and I am sure we will meet one day ... Cheers, Aron

Truly a must-read if your goal is to understand life's dynamics and reach the best version of yourself so that you get the respect you feel a real man should get but aren't getting yet. Absolutely recommend!

The author is not so much interested in a life outside or beyond "the Matrix", but in maximizing his worldly life within it. His critique of modernity is ambivalent between wether its gender dynamic is permanent throughout history and nature on the one hand, or a product of a twisted present on the other, to which his answer isn't to aim at being the change you want, but to use the situation.The author wouldn't say that its better to die for a lost cause than live a meaningless life, rather he'd say you have to embrace the meaninglessness in it all. No matter what one thinks about that in and of itself, is irrelevant; this means that Cooper wants to improve his life within the Matrix, not leave it.My own crucial point of disagreement with Cooper, is that modernity superimpose a boy-psychology on women, and denounce not only masculinity but feminity as well. I don't belive in "men walking their own way", nor incel, being a good idea, but Cooper doesn't provide the answer - largely because his empirical data (his own life) is too small, and he has crowned the produce of man made contraception as a part of the natural process.
