About this title: Gail Sheehy asks the question "What do men want?" and answers it provocatively and perceptively. She examines how traditional male roles have changed, how men go through something that might be called male menopause and what it means, what sex and power have to do with men's sense of themselves, what is happening with the corporate refugees, and how men can come back to a satisfying and productive life.

"This book taught me about the unique challenges faced by men in today's society. It also conveyed the fears many men face about their lives, the world and their families. There is so much that unites the genders and interesting stuff that makes the male/female experience different. Let me tell ya ladies, despite popular opinion, men are JUST as complicated beings as women. Humans are complicated and life is rich because of it. If you love a man (husband, brother, father, son etc.) this book is a MUST read."
"Good book for both men and women. Men to understand what is going on with us emotionally and physically as we go through the decades of our lives. Women so they would understand our failings and our insecurities. I just re-read (March 2009) some of and was reminded how much it helsp to understand myself and where I am at this point in life. And what lies ahead."
"Men generally don't talk about their diminishing capacities. Sheehy looks at physical and emotional changes men encounter as they move into and through their middle ages. She offers narratives from men she has interviewed in which they discuss how these changes impact their lives at home and work, and how they cope with these changes."
