At last a sane, sympathetic book about being a man... Derek Llewellyn-Jones's Every Man leads you through the ages of man with humour and insight... Every Man is as good on emotions and social problems as it is on the physical facts of life - a book for all men, and for all women whowant to understand them better.' CompanyMuch has been written about women, their bodies, and their feelings. But what about men? This detailed and sensitive book offers men a sympathetic account of their bodies, their needs, and their problems.Many of the misconceived ideas about male emotions and male sexuality are based on ignorance and lack of communication. Derek Llewellyn-Jones, with the direct and human approach which made Everywoman so popular, succeeds in putting this right. For this third edition the author has fully updatedthe text to take into account new research.This new edition has been substantially revised to incorporate new research into sexual behaviour, male contraception, HIV transmission and treatment, homosexuality, the `male menopause', prostrate cancer, high blood pressure and heart disease, exercise and nutrition.
This book investigates the biological, psychological, and social dimensions of the male experience to provide a comprehensive guide for men and those seeking to understand them. Derek Llewellyn-Jones, a medical professional, utilizes clinical research and sociological observation to address common misconceptions regarding male health, sexuality, and emotional development. The text serves as a corrective to the historical imbalance in literature focused on women's health by applying a similar, human-centered framework to the male life cycle.
