FATHERHOOD PHILOSOPHY FOR EVERYONE FATHERHOOD PHILOSOPHY FOR EVERYONE It has been said that being a father is what finally gives a man his meaning in life.

But, no fear, help is at hand as Fatherhood – Philosophy for Everyone offers wisdom and practical advice drawn from the annals of philosophy, exploring paternal concerns such as: Fatherhood and the meaning of life The impact of change in men who become fathers How to raise well-adjusted children and have a more fulfilling and enjoyable experience of fatherhood Do real fathers bake cookies? Both thought-provoking and practical, Fatherhood – Philosophy for Everyone provides a valuable starting and ending point for reflecting on this crucial role.
