"I keep giving this book away; I think I've owned 30 different copies already. I tend to pass it out to anybody, man or woman, who has made a commitment to-or even has a passing interest in-the art of loving. David Deida gets it, like no one I've ever read, and he writes about it forcefully, honestly, and downright poetically." -Michael Tucker, actor and author "The Way of the Superior Man is quite wonderful. Finally, a guide for the noncastrated male. This book will offend and infuriate some, inspire and test others, but challenge virtually everybody. I found it wise, insightful, occasionally brilliant, and always resourceful. To transcend the body-mind means to transcend and include its sexuality, not transcend and evaporate it. Few are the books that discuss strong sexuality within strong spirituality, instead of tepid sexuality diluted by a mediocre spiritual stance. This book steps straightforwardly into the challenge. Love it or loathe it, it is a shout from the heart of one perspective of the eternal masculine." -Ken Wilber, author of Sex, Ecology, Spirituality; No Boundary; and Grace and Grit "At last! A book that explains the heart and soul of a woman to men. As a woman, I've never felt so understood and validated. This book is a key to helping men and women take their relationships one step further. Finally, a clear and brilliant guide to unraveling the mystery of relationships." -Marci Shimoff, co-author of the New York Times #1 bestseller Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul "The Way of the Superior Man lays out a challenge before all men to fulfill their true purpose and to be authentically masculine. It will guide you on your journey to a successful and spiritually complete way of life. I invite you to live in the moment, to love openly, and to step up to the plate with this book in your hand." -Tony Robbins, author of Awaken the Giant Within and Unlimited Power "David's work speaks to the core of our work as men. He offers a bold view of men, and challenges us to stand up and lay claim to the beauty and power of the masculine. He does not advocate superiority as in 'superiority to women.' He speaks of superiority as the Greeks might. The challenge is strictly internal. The invitation is to rise above our mediocrity, to let go of making excuses for our own laziness, to stop apologizing for who we are, and to stop blaming others or our childhood for how we've become. He asks that we step into the fullness of our being-intense, focused, powerful, clear. And directly connected to our hearts." -Dennis Mead-Shikaly, Executive Director: The ManKind Project / New Warrior Network

    As described, fast shipping, fair price. This book is a life-changer for any man interested in improving his lot in life. Approach with an open mind and read a chapter at a time (they're short - it's a good "on the throne" book) so as to absorb the heavy slightly intimidating information. And guys, if you don't understand women, this book will be an eye opener in helping you on your companionship journey. Highly recommended for the modern male in search of becoming a good man & mate. Thank you.

    It's good for young men and boys particularly those who are not properly raised with no spiritual foundation or upbringing or strong male role model.

  • Wish i heard of it sooner

    I wish i had this book in my teenage years. It would have provided the fatherly or big brother advice i really needed and save me from a lot of mistakes i made. Buy it read it, keep it, reread.

  • Good book

    I just received the book. Ive only read the intro, but i already know this book is gonna be hard to put down and has a lot to offer on learning. The only thing is when my book came, the back paperback cover was crumpled during shipping or maybe they carelessly stuffed it in the packaging.
