POUSSAINT, M.D., MARTIN G. RAMEY, ALMAS JAMIL SAMI’ and JOEP ZANDER– in essays and interviews compiled by DIANE A. SEARS, speak from the depths of their souls about why Men – especially Men who are Fathers are redefining Fatherhood through the creation of “father-friendly” legislation and public policies and coalitions that extend beyond geographic boundaries and how Men are reshaping their parental roles and responsibilities. IN SEARCH OF FATHERHOOD® -- TRANSCENDING BOUNDARIES is a “straight-no chaser” exploration of the challenges that confront Married Fathers, Single Fathers, “Stay-At-Home” Fathers, “Long Distance” Fathers, Custodial Fathers, and Non-Custodial Fathers in the Millennium throughout our global village as they struggle to shape the minds and souls of our children.

IN SEARCH OF FATHERHOOD® -- TRANSCENDING BOUNDARIES does not stop there. It also contains a Resources Directory for Fathers comprising organizations around the world that address the needs and issues of men – especially Men who are Fathers and a recommendation list of books that deal with Fatherhood and Men’s issues all of which were compiled by DIANE A.

THE REVIEWS

“In Search Of Fatherhood® -- Transcending Boundaries is a long overdue look at Fatherhood issues. In the well meaning effort to ease the problems of mothers and their children, Fathers and their issues have been overlooked. In Search Of Fatherhood® -- Transcending Boundaries is a welcome effort in correcting this situation.”
