Revisioning Men's Lives

Blending dramatic personal and clinical experiences, psychiatrist Terry Kupers shows the dilemmas facing men who want to transcend traditional gender roles. We witness brutally frank discussions with Kuper's clients about their struggles with wives, sons, fathers, and work, and see how these men gain insights and solutions which transform their lives. Through gripping clinical and autobiographical material, Dr. Kupers reflects larger themes of gender, intimacy, and power, and shows how the deeply divided men's movement has yet to provide answers which allow a man to connect emotionally without becoming "less of a man" in the process. This is an important and powerful book, one which will provide men and their significant others with new ways to understand and construct their lives.
