About this title

Review:

David Wexler offers us an overview of how the worlds of masculinity and therapeutic growth connect and collide. This is an eminently readable book and a much-needed contribution to the field of psychotherapy.--Susan Johnson, EdD, CPsych, professor of clinical psychology, University of Ottawa, and research professor, Alliant University, San Diego

I am so impressed with this book that I have prescribed it to several female clients who want to better understand the men in their lives.--Dr. Bryan Knight

This book is a wonderful contribution to both the study of men's issues and the larger mental health field. Wexler wrote with the practitioner in mind and he has succeeded in creating an accessible text for both novice and seasoned professionals.

We recommend this book to any mental health professional interested in improving his or her knowledge base and therapeutic skills with male patients... [V]ery accessible and well written... [H]ighly comprehensible.
