I remember reading an ad for a book once in the last year, that talked about the
differences between the sexes.  I either read the ad on
http://www.rushlimbaugh.com or on http://www.worldnetdaily.com.

The book's advertisement claimed something to the effect that, the
husbands of women with careers don't live as long as the husbands of
women without careers.

I will accept as an answer one of the following:

1) The ISBN of the book itself.
2) All the information I need to pull the article from the journal the
research appeared in.

Could the book you're seeking be "Taking Sex Differences Seriously"?
This book discusses the fact that husbands of women in high-stress
professions don?t live as long as other husbands.

Here is an excerpt from an article by Steven E. Rhoads, the author of
"Taking Sex Differences Seriously":

"Another study - part of the world-famous Framingham research -
suggests women who bring office problems home may kill off husbands
before they?re properly feminized. It seems husbands of white-collar
wives with unsupportive bosses are more than three times more likely
to die of heart disease, apparently as a result of frustration: Men do
not like to talk about unresolvable problems; women do. The men wanted
to protect their wives from hostile bosses but felt unable to help."

Please let me know if I'm on the right track.

I came across this article while searching for the book. You may find this useful:

Health Effects of Role Reversal

Research conducted by Dr. Elaine D. Eaker, Sc.D. of Eaker Epidemiology
Enterprises, LLC, in Chili, Wisconsin, the principal investigator of
the Framingham Offspring Study, was released in April 2002 by the
American Heart Association at their Asia Pacific Scientific Forum. The
study links non-traditional jobs and social roles to heart disease and
death.
 
Scientists found that men who spent most of their adult lives being
stay-at-home dads had an 82 percent higher death rate over a ten-year
span when compared to men who worked outside the home...
 
Another study conducted by University of Chicago sociologist Ross
Stolzenberg found that, ?The husbands of women who worked more than
forty hours a week were significantly less healthy than other married
men.?

Stolzenberg?s analysis was published in the American Journal of
Sociology and is based on data collected in 1986 from 2,867 adults in
a survey conducted by the University of Michigan. Three years later,
the participants in the study were again interviewed and were asked to
give their own assessment on the status of their overall health,
ranging on a scale from ?excellent? to ?poor.? It was interesting to
note that husbands? jobs and work hours had no effect on their wives?
health whatsoever, regardless of how many hours they worked. Likewise,
as reported by Stolzenberg, ?Fewer than 40 hours of work per week by
wives has no effect on husbands? health, but more than 40 hours has
substantial negative effect.?
