not only a powerful book, it is an essential one. He helps us understand
why men are so irritable, angry, and depressed, and more importantly what
men and women can do to prevent and treat these problems. This book can
save your relationship and may even save your life. It is filled with
personal examples and case studies of people the author has helped. Jed's
care and compassion come across in every page. The Irritable Male Syndrome

Mission:
MenAlive seeks to enrich men's relationships with themselves, their families, and their communities.
Vision:
MenAlive focuses on male menopause as a critical bridge to the second half of life. We focus on the Irritable Male Syndrome and men and depression, to prepare men to cross that bridge. We address the hormonal, physical, psychological, interpersonal, sexual, nutritional, economic, social, ecological, and spiritual aspects of men's health and act as an influential source of timely information, resources, products and community centered events on male menopause and men's health, for men and the women who love them.
