In chapters drawn from actual case histories, a noted psychologist probes the riddle of masculinity and concludes that men must accept the paradoxes of their gender in order to truly love a woman, father a child, and understand themselves.
Good book overall; however, very frank about some aspects of being male some might find too frank or even offensive. Some of the cases presented are pretty raw, especially the chapters that address the issues of incest and abuse. Those we even difficult for me to read. I couldn't decide to have sympathy or smack the men being written about.
