"Controversial and exhaustively researched, gender expert Warren Farrell's latest book "Why Men Earn More" takes as its stunning argument the idea that bias-based unequal pay for women is largely a myth, and that women are most often paid less than men not because they are discriminated against, but because they have made lifestyle choices that affect their ability to earn. "Why Men Earn More" argues that while discrimination sometimes plays a part, both men and women unconsciously make trade-offs that affect how much they earn. Farrell clearly defines the 25 different workplace choices that affect women's and men's incomes -- including putting in more hours at work, taking riskier jobs or more hazardous assignments, being willing to change location, and training for technical jobs that involve less people contact -- and provides readers with specific, research-supported ways for women to earn higher pay. "Why Men Earn More," with its brashness in the face of political correctness, is sure to ignite a storm of media controversy that will help to make this thoroughly pragmatic expose Warren Farrell's next bestseller."

Kniha Krize chlapectví přináší komplexní plán pro rodiče, učitele, nebo politiky, aby zjistili, jak mohou našim synům pomoci k tomu, aby z nich byli šťastnější a zdravější muži, otcové a leadeři, kteří si zaslouží náš respekt. Co ale znamená krize chlapectví konkrétně? Jedná se o krizi vzdělávání. Chlapci mají po celém světě o 50 procent menší pravděpodobnost než dívky, že splní základní kritéria znalostí v oblasti čtení, matematiky a přírodních věd. Jedná se o krizi duševního zdraví. Počet lidí trpících ADHD roste. A zatímco míra sebevražd u chlapců a dívek je stejná, jak se z chlapců stávají mladí muži, míra sebevražd je u nich šestkrát větší než u mladých žen. Jedná se o krizi otcovské péče. Chlapci vyrůstají s otci, kteří se méně podílejí na výchově, a chlapci pak v důsledku toho častěji nedokončí školu, propadnou alkoholu nebo drogám, začnou páchat trestnou činnost a skončí ve vězení. Jedná se o krizi účelu. Původní pocit účelu, který chlapci měli - být válečníkem, leaderem nebo výlučným živitelem rodiny - se pomalu vytrácí. Řada bystrých chlapců se tak potýká s "absencí účelu", cítí se odcizení, izolovaní a propadají okamžitému potěšení.
