Warren Farrell

Challenges the notion that men have more power than women by showing that most men are not threatened by equality between the sexes

Why Men are the Disposable Sex

The Myth of Male Power

John Gray

Examines issues challenging today's young men in the areas of education, mental health, sexuality, and leadership, outlining a comprehensive blueprint for parents, teachers, and policymakers to help boys lead purpose-driven lives.

Why Our Boys Are Struggling and What We Can Do about It

The Boy Crisis

In Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say, Dr. Warren Farrell demonstrates how gender-based anger at home, in the workplace, in omnipresent media images, and throughout the overall culture combines with men's own fear of speaking out to misrepresent the inner and outer reality of men's lives. Looking at the world from the perspectives of both men and women, Dr. Farrell provides a remarkable communication program to assist couples in moving beyond the current tripwire assumptions that lead to so much gender-based conflict, and to allow them to understand and love each other more fully than ever. His methods are the culmination of thirty years of experience with thousands of men and women in workshops, groups, and seminars. They prove that strategies that create love at home can also produce success and respect in the workplace.

Destroying Myths, Creating Love

Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say

Does feminism give a much-needed voice to women in a patriarchal world? Or is the world not really patriarchal? Has feminism begun to level the playing field in a world in which women are more often paid less at work and abused at home? Or are women paid equally for the same work and not abused more at home? Does feminism support equality in education and in the military, or does it discriminate against men by ignoring such issues as male-only draft registration and boys lagging behind in school? The only book of its kind, this volume offers a sharp, lively, and provocative debate on the impact of feminism on men. Warren Farrell--an international best-selling author and leader in both the early women's and current men's movements--praises feminism for opening options for women but criticizes it for demonizing men, distorting data, and undervaluing the family. In response, James P. Sterba--an acclaimed philosopher and ardent advocate of feminism--maintains that the feminist movement gives a long-neglected voice to women in a male-dominated world and that men are not an oppressed gender in today's America. Their wide-ranging debate covers personal issues, from love, sex, dating, and rape to domestic violence, divorce, and child custody. Farrell and Sterba also look through their contrasting lenses at systemic issues, from the school system to the criminal justice system; from the media to the military; and from health care to the workplace. A perfect book to get students thinking and debating, Does Feminism Discriminate Against Men? A Debate is ideal for courses in gender studies, sociology, psychology, economics, feminist philosophy, and contemporary moral issues. It is also compelling reading for anyone interested in the future of men and women.

Beyond Mars and Venus

Bestselling author Warren Farrell contends that unequal pay for women is essentially a myth-that women are often paid less than men not because of discrimination but because men are more likely to make choices for higher pay. Clearly outlining the 25 workplace choices that affect men's and women's incomes, Farrell's analysis enables readers to weigh whether a trade-off is worth the greater pay. Such a non-PC take on a hot-button issue will raise eyebrows and hackles but the potential benefit is enormous. The Pay Paradox will give women specific, research-supported ways to earn higher pay. The book does not deny the reality of continuing discrimination against women and includes a full chapter devoted to this issue.

Od autora Muži jsou z Marsu, ženy z Venuše„Krize chlapectví“ brilantním způsobem zkoumá problémy, jimž čelí naši synové – a tedy de facto všichni. Kapitoly o ADHD, úloze matek a otců při výchově a o tom, jak v chlapcích rozvinout zdravou inteligenci, jsou neocenitelné a změní vám život.“ —Suzanne SomersováKniha Krize chlapectví přináší komplexní plán pro rodiče, učitele, nebo politiky, aby zjistili, jak mohou našim synům pomoci k tomu, aby z nich byli šťastnější a zdravější muži, otcové a leadeři, kteří si zaslouží náš respekt. Co ale znamená krize chlapectví konkrétně?Jedná se o krizi vzdělávání. Chlapci mají po celém světě o 50 procent menší pravděpodobnost než dívky, že splní základní kritéria znalostí v oblasti čtení, matematiky a přírodních věd.Jedná se o krizi duševního zdraví. Počet lidí trpících ADHD roste. A zatímco míra sebevražd u chlapců a dívek je stejná, jak se z chlapců stávají mladí muži, míra sebevražd je u nich šestkrát větší než u mladých žen.Jedná se o krizi otcovské péče. Chlapci vyrůstají s otci, kteří se méně podílejí na výchově, a chlapci pak v důsledku toho častěji nedokončí školu, propadnou alkoholu nebo drogám, začnou páchat trestnou činnost a skončí ve vězení.Jedná se o krizi účelu. Původní pocit účelu, který chlapci měli – být válečníkem, leaderem nebo výlučným živitelem rodiny – se pomalu vytrácí. Řada bystrých chlapců se tak potýká s „absencí účelu“, cítí se odcizení, izolovaní a propadají okamžitému potěšení.
