The Making Of A Man
Reclaiming masculinity and manhood in the light of reason

A resource book |
A book that cuts through decades of nonsense written about gender and men
Making sense of the issues of gender, masculinity and manhood, has for decades been bedevilled by rigid gender ideology. This book bravely departs from the status quo and proposes a refreshingly different view. Drawing from a number of major authors and different disciplines it crafts key findings into a compelling and coherent alternative perspective, complete with new definitions and suggestions for further enquiry. Though offering a basic critique of anti-male feminism, it abstains from reactionism, and instead advocates a common standard of equity and respectful dialogue for both genders. The book challenges the moral legitimacy of attempts at social engineering and 'welfare' efforts that are not informed by the best available knowledge about what we are, how we think and feel, and why we behave in certain sex-specific ways. |

This book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding and working more effectively with Men and Boys
Drawing from a wide range of research and a variety of disciplines, this book presents a compelling argument for rethinking many of the popular assumptions we have come to accept about men. For decades our understanding of male psychology and behaviour has been shaped by rigid gender ideology. This book departs from the politically correct status quo and proposes a refreshingly different view. The book also maps out a whole new agenda for the cultivation of manly character, and for assisting boys in their crucial transition from boyhood to manhood - from 'boy psychology' to 'man psychology'.
This is an invaluable resource for health and welfare professionals, educators, therapists and male mentors.
