Wrote a long review and it got deleted so long review short:

This book tries to sell modern day “alpha male” superiority with Christianity sprinkled in. The very basis of the book is skewed when the authors take the creation mandate as applying to Adam as a man and not Adam as father to the human race. Everything is masculine in this book: being wise? It’s because you’re a man. Strong? So manly! Able to work? You better not be a woman. Enterprise is somehow a fundamentally masculine trait, but this is not backed up by scripture.

This book tries to uplift men, but it does this in a way that diminishes women.

Good and bracing word on manhood. The authors can be needlessly sharp and make sweeping statements that I don’t think hold up. (They’d probably argue that’s how a book by men and for men about manhood should be written.) But given the deep confusion among men today, especially within the church, I appreciated the passion with which they write.
