Summary

'At last a sane, sympathetic book about being a man . . . DerekLlewellyn-Jones's Every Man leads you through the ages of man with humour andinsight . . . Every Man is as good on emotions and social problems as it is onthe physical facts of life - a book for all men, and for all women who want tounderstand them better.' CompanyMuch has been written about women, their bodies, and their feelings. But whatabout men? This detailed and sensitive book offers men a sympathetic account oftheir bodies, their needs, and their problems.Many of the misconceived ideas about male emotions and male sexuality are basedon ignorance and lack of communication. Derek Llewellyn-Jones, with the directand human approach which made Everywoman so popular, succeeds in putting thisright. For this third edition the author has fully updated the text to takeinto account new research.This new edition has been substantially revised to incorporate new researchinto sexual behaviour, male contraception, HIV transmission and treatment,homosexuality, the 'male menopause', prostrate cancer, high blood pressure andheart disease, exercise and nutrition.
