men don't cry, women do

I needed a dictionary to get started. Some of the vocabulary was used in a way I was not familiar with. I've facilitated grief groups and families for 15 years and this book was helpful in helping me understand the men in these groups a little better. I also felt in some ways this book was written by Ph.D's for Ph.D's, it could have been a little more lay person friendly. The book arrived in good shape and in a timely fashion.

Very informative

I bought this book for a course on grief and loss. I found the information invaluable, giving me a whole new perspective on the way we grieve.The title doesn't do it much justice.It's a must read.
