"A formidable answer to an age-old question: How can a man make
himself tolerable and useful while accepting and expressing his
primordial maleness--the searching and aggressive urges to conquer
what needs subduing, protect the vulnerable, fix what is broken,
compete and risk what demands to be risked in himself and the
world? The author's message is set in the Christian tradition
without being controlled by its ideology. Eldredge believes that
institutions can oppress a man's heart and keep society from
benefiting from his fierce desire to love, do good, fight evil, and
go beyond the limits. The exceptional writing and ideational
balance (and a sensitive interpretation by Kelly Dolan) make this a
compelling effort to integrate the hero's gritty nature with the
public good."
