Author(s): Marianne J. Legato, M.D., FACP
"This clearly written book, with its informative coverage of the male perspective on gender-specific
medicine--and ironically written by a female physician--is a good purchase for public libraries and
consumer health collections" --Library Journal
"A vital and rewarding book...a fascinating as well as practical look at how men are both made (by
biology) and shaped (by culture). Readers will be engaged and amazed by the discoveries and insights
that modern medicine now possesses about the mysteries of gender. Dr. Legato has a gift for narrative
and an ability to see into the human heart." --Diane Salvatore, Editor in Chief, Ladies. Home Journal
"Marianne Legato, who has devoted her career to studying the differences between the sexes, believes
that the premature death of men is the most important--and neglected--health issue of our time. She
has written a book for every man who wants to live longer and for the women and families who love
them. Dr. Legato has started a much needed conversation we should all be having about how we can
improve the health and longevity of men, who--at all ages--die before women."--Dr. Mehmet Oz, author
