AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.COM, BARNES AND NOBLE AND OTHER BOOKSELLERS

This book explores the boundaries both personal and professional which must be conquered to make and maintain meaningful relationships – over 200 men were interviewed to assess the boundaries they faced in their relationships and how they overcame those obstacles – one of the most rewarding aspects of writing this book is the reader feedback I’ve gotten – one woman from Minneapolis wrote to me that she saw my book on her husband’s night stand and she decided to read it – she and her husband discussed my book and they decided to raise their children differently based on the subtle and not-so-subtle messages parents send their children – the genesis of this book was a road trip with my best friend who is 27 years my junior and we discussed what our contemporaries thought of us being best friends and we both had boundaries to conquer not between us but with our contemporaries who couldn’t understand how a 48 year old and a 21 year old could be best friends – this book examines the lives of over 200 interviewees from over 30 countries and documents the boundaries they had to cross to make and maintain meaningful relationships –
