Review
"A brilliant and necessary analysis of what mothers can do to raise sons who have high regard for women, and so, for themselves. The reconfiguring of the mother/son bond, along the lines Bassoff describes, will do much to make the world a fairer, better, safer, and more humane place."
--Louise DeSalvo, author of Virginia Woolf: The Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse on Her Life and Work and Conceived With Malice
"A clear and accessible discussion of various mother/son situations, including those involving two-parent families, single mothers, stepmothers, and mothers of gay sons. A book mothers of boys, young and old, will want to read: for insights, for affirmation, and for joy."
