Why Violence Against Women is a Men’s Issue, and How You Can Make a Difference

Summary

Why have we failed so badly to end men’s violence against women?
What can we actually do about it?

This insightful, provocative and practical handbook suggests a bold solution. Expert scholar and activist, Jackson Katz has spent the last 30 years educating people around the world on male violence against women and advocates that to make society safer, we need more men to care and to stand up for women.

In this galvanizing book, Jackson reveals indispensable everyday tools that will help men from all walks of life become part of the solution to gender-based violence. Find out how to respond when a friend or colleague makes a misogynistic comment; learn how to intervene in incidents that may seem small but can lead to violence; and discover how you can become a role model for boys and men who need positive leadership in their lives.

This is the essential reading for every man who wants to make society safe for us all.
