This book shows the way forward for men, October 4, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Victories of the Heart: The Inside Story of a Pioneer Men's Group : How Men Help Each Other Change Their Lives (Paperback)
As a man it's easy to feel like you're the only one feeling what you're feeling, like no-one will fully understand. This book shows how the forming of connections between men in the form of close friendships can provide a bridge to an understanding many of us are lacking. This book brought me to tears many a time as I realised the far-reaching implications of what it said. I now see that the closeness of childhood with others should be continued in adult life with those of the same sex. I think the ideas in this book are the antidote for the suffering we feel caused by the expectations of society to be something we deep down know is wrong. I think this is a very fine book and Bob and Buddy have a lot to be proud of, I am extremely grateful to them for writing it and hope they will write more.
