In this enlightening companion volume to the bestselling "Goddesses in Everywoman". Jean Shinoda Bolen focuses on the inner lives of men and the archetypes that shape their personalities and behaviors in all aspects of life including work, relationships, conflicts and dreams.

Each of the major gods of ancient Greek mythology are distinctive personalities and archetypes. There is authoritarian Zeus, emotional Posedion, sensual and ecstatic Dionysus, introverted Hades, Hephaestus and craftsman, instinctive Ares, Hernes the communicator-salesman, and mindful Apollo. One may be dominant in a person or several may co-exist. A man who knows which are his active archetypes gains knowledge about himself and his sources of meaning.

"Gods in Everyman" will help women understand the males in their lives, including their young sons, husbands, lovers and fathers. Archetypes are universal, which makes it likely that every woman will also find that at least one of these archetypes is part of herself.

Readers will discover that when mythical stories and images remind us of people we know and of themes in our own lives, this exciting new knowledge results in "aha!" insight and we are the richer for it.
