Understanding Men's Passages: Discovering the New Map of Men's Lives

very good hardcover with dust jacket.

From Publisher:

The author of the bestselling New Passages and The Silent Passage now turns her perceptive eye on men today -- their problems, their passions, their hunger for renewal.

Men over thirty-five today are in turmoil. Few are prepared to change their lives to take advantage of a new second half. Gail Sheehy has talked candidly with hundreds of men about formerly forbidden subjects -- their fears of aging, job dislocation, slackening sex lives, their envy of wives whose careers are gearing up just as theirs are winding down.

Gail Sheehy's Passages for Men will be a man's secret friend -- a short, intimate, knowing guide to self-renewal. The stories of celebrities and regular guys who are reinventing their lives offer concrete information as well as inspiration. Every man should read this book -- and every woman will.

Among the broad range of issues newly explored in Passages for Men are:
-- Looking for your post-career career
-- Letting go of a growing son
-- The nest is empty -- are you ready for love in the morning?
-- His and her retirement fantasies
-- Do men have to die earlier than women?
-- The male sexual life cycle
-- Growing and regenerating the brain
-- What do we do with all this leftover life
-- Beyond virility-impotence and the midlife passage
