Using the Greek gods as cultural images of the various male archetypes, this insightful study seeks to establish a lucid yet compassionate and sensitive framework for male psychology. Whether a Hermes-like communicator, a Hephaestian loner, or a wanderer and lover in the mold of Dionysus, men are encouraged to become familiar with the gods most active within them in order to choose the most satisfying options and directions in their lives. The book is of use to women, too, in determining which archetypes they are most attracted to and which are incompatible with their expectations.
