Descripción: "Once again, Jack Myers has his fingers on the pulse of the very latest. Myers has clearly done his homework, and the result is this superb book." --Ken Burns, documentary filmmaker of The Roosevelts and The Civil War After being told all their lives to "be a man" and "man up," men are now rejecting the macho stereotype and instead developing empathy, getting in touch with their emotions, and becoming more sensitive in their relationships. Women are gaining ground in business, culture, education, relationships, and politics as traditional male and female roles disappear. The Future of Men: Masculinity in the Twenty-First Century prepares men and women for this shift in gender norms. As the definition of a "real man" evolves, understanding the future of men in business, politics, sports, education, relationships, and parenting will be essential for men to maintain psychological well-being, strengthen their self-esteem and sexual self-confidence, and rewire their emotional lives. The Future of Men provides tools to help men, and especially younger men, recognize and embrace new behaviors that are required for health and happiness at work, at home, and in their relationships. Críticas "[Myers] predicts that 'men won't be the dominant sex in the future, but they won't be subservient either'...His views will stimulate controversy and conversation." --Publishers Weekly"Once again, Jack Myers has his fingers on the pulse of the very latest. Myers has clearly done his homework, and the result is this superb book." --Ken Burns, documentary filmmaker of The Roosevelts and The Civil War "The Future of Men is an incredibly important and timely book. A game-shifting story." -- Morgan Spurlock, Documentary filmmaker, Super Size Me, Mansome, and Inside Man ""Girls rule! Girls rock! You go, Girl Great, if you're a girl, but where does that leave the boys? Jack Myers' book, The Future of Men: Masculinity in the Twenty-First Century should be required reading for every parent rearing sons." -- Contessa Brewer, Anchor & Correspondent, NBC & MSNBC "In his groundbreaking book, The Future of Men, Jack Myers challenges the existing role models on whom men base their male identity, opening the door to a new conversation about masculinity. It is a must-read for any man who wants to maintain a realistic balance of power in his relationships with the women in his life." -- Dr. Jane Greer, Author of What About Me? Stop Selfishness from Ruining Your Relationship "Jack Myers is an Ad Man. Which makes his new book The Future of Men: Masculinity in the Twenty-First Century even more interesting. From a world that worships the image rather than the reality, Myers tells us to ignore the images that have defined men in the past and instead embrace our sensitivity and become more empathetic. In order to become better men, he says we need, among other things, to act more like women! He's GOT to be good to pull this off! He is." -- Larry Kramer, President & Publisher, USA Today "Jack Myers has proven over and over again that he has an eye for the trends that drive our culture and our industry. Now Jack, a Mad Men admirer from the start, tackles head-on the future of (all) men. I look forward to diving into something that should likely be labeled with a life-sized' spoiler alert' for all of our gender." -- Charlie Collier, President, AMC & SundanceTV "It's no secret that gender roles are blurring, but discussion on the future of this evolutionary change has been minimal. The Future of Men is the guide we've needed to walk us through this shift from the macho man to the modern man." -- Sydney N. Fulkerson, Author, The Coffee Run: And Other Internship Need-to-Knows "Yet again, I find myself eagerly awaiting the blunt, eye-opening cultural insights that I am doubtless Jack Myers will bring to us with The Future of Men. He has a way of packaging his cultural insights to directly assist the reader in business and life at large."
