What if the solution to the masculinity crisis isn't tearing men down, but building them up? In a world where men face suicide rates four times higher than women and are often labeled as ""toxic"" without being given new blueprints for healthy behavior, there's a different conversation we need to have. The cultural shift toward women's equality (which is absolutely necessary) has inadvertently left many men feeling lost, vilified, and without a roadmap for what healthy masculinity looks like in 2025.

Nontoxic Masculinity: A Celebration of Good Men by Jessica Chasteen expands Carl Jung's original 4 masculine archetypes into 12 comprehensive models of healthy manhood - each with toxic shadow states and mature, life-giving expressions. Dive into the strengths, struggles, vices, and virtues of men across history and fiction to inspire you and show you the way to break old patterns and cycles that keep you stuck in your life and your relationships.
