A Book All Men Should Read

December 16, 2006 / by greatmartin

In 1976 I came across a book that became my 'bible' over the years--every time I read a blog by a guy in their 30s, 40s, 50s, who are having problems--any kind of problems-- I want to shout (and sometimes I do) "Read this book!"--there is now a newer version--my book was called "Passages", written by Gail Sheehy--she has now published "New Passages" because:
"Millions of readers literally defined their lives through Gail Sheehy’s landmark bestseller, Passages, named by a Library of Congress survey as one of the most influential books of our time. In 1995 ago she set out to write a sequel, but instead she discovered a historic revolution in the adult life cycle " (For more about this book go to
http://gailsheehy.com/middletown/new_passages_index.html )

Yesterday I was in Borders and glanced through another book of hers called "Understanding Men's Passages" and the chapters about a man's sex life is worth the price alone.

If I had the money I would be sending copies to Chris, Gary, AJ, Dale, etc., as a gift because the book would help them understand where they are in their life and where they are going!

For all of her books just go to gailsheehy.com and click on 'books' then click on any of the covers to read more about that particular book.

If you have a man in your life read this book--if you don't by reading this book both men and women may understand why they don't.
For men over 60 there is a lot for you in both books because you still have a lot ahead of you!
