On Being a Man
Sam Keen is a noted author and lecturer who has written thirteen books on philosophy and religion. He earned graduate degrees from the Harvard Divinity School and Princeton University, and spent twenty years working as an editor ofPsychology Today. Keen coproduced the Emmy-nominated PBS documentaryFaces of the Enemy, and was the subject of a PBS special with Bill Moyers entitledYour Mythic Journey with Sam Keen. When not writing or traveling around the world lecturing and giving seminars on a wide range of topics, Keen cuts wood, tends to his farm in the hills above Sonoma, takes long hikes, and practices the flying trapeze.
“Sam Keen is one of the most creative, profound thinkers of our
time. I personally have learned and benefited immensely from his
books. He brings to the men's movement a new kind of practical
wisdom that should help both men and women.”—John Bradshaw, author
of Homecoming
“This book taught me things i didn't know, thawed out some feelings
that had been frozen, and made me remember things I thought I
wanted to forget. The growing men's movement has added a voice and
a book that captures the problems of being male and the promises of
manhood achieved. I didn't want it to end.”—John Lee, author
of The Flying Boy
