Synopsis "Men at the Brink: Masculinity in the 21St Century"

It's only on the brink that people find the will to change. Only at the precipice do we evolve.-John CleeseDrawing on mythology, psychoanalytic investigation and sociocultural trends, this book traverses the ever-changing landscape of masculinity from classical images to current-day sociocultural perspectives on the male gender. The author the explores early roots of the masculine character, the skewed view of the masculine character in mental health research as well as the impact of present-day male taglines such as "patriarchy" and "toxic masculinity." The text illustrates the misunderstanding of men's needs and treatment by mental health practitioners, the media, as well as the social justice system. In all, this book is a warning about the fate of men and suggests ways to avert the terrible outcome of men falling from the brink. Illustrated with clinical vignettes, MEN AT THE BRINK is important reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and the educated public who wish to understand the permutations of masculinity and who wish to ensure a richer future for both men and womenDavid P. Jachim, PhD, FIPA is a board-certified psychoanalyst in Seattle, Washington. He is a Past President of The Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and has published articles and essays in the areas of psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic training, clinical aspects of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy as well as the social and political aspects of psychoanalysis.
