product description
Drawing on research in sociology, economics, philosophy, gender studies, and the author's own experiences, Father Figure by Jordan Shapiro sets out to fill that gap. It's an exploration of the psychology of fatherhood from an archetypal perspective as well as a cultural history that challenges familiar assumptions about the origins of so-called traditional parenting roles. What paradoxes and contradictions are inherent in our common understanding of dads? Might it be time to rethink some aspects of fatherhood?
