Manhood

Clear and practical advice for men wanting to enrich their lives, and for parents wanting the best future for their sons – from acclaimed psychologist and bestselling author of Raising Boys, Steve Biddulph.

What does it mean to be a man in the modern world?

In Manhood, Steve Biddulph explores how men can live richer, more fulfilling lives by rethinking the expectations that have shaped masculinity for generations.

With warmth, humour and decades of psychological insight, Biddulph shows readers how to:
  • Build deeper, more honest relationships and lasting male friendships
  • Break down the defences and outdated expectations that hold you back
  • Navigate love, sex and intimacy with greater confidence
  • Find greater purpose and fulfilment in work and fatherhood
  • Develop a healthier, more positive understanding of masculinity

Whether you're questioning what you've been taught about being a man or simply want to live with greater purpose and connection, Manhood offers an empowering roadmap for the life ahead.

This revised and updated edition reflects the challenges facing younger men in the twenty-first century, making this empowering guide more relevant than ever.
