About this title

Synopsis

All of us have learned from the various people in our lives. We have matured and developed our values with the help of family, teachers, faith communities, and friends. Each chapter in this book is the story of an actual father and son, taken from interviews and written after critical reflection, a process necessary to proper anthropological methodology. The contributions were gathered from a broad base of geographical and ethnic backgrounds. The are presented here with the hope they will encourage readers to reflect upon relationships with their own fathers and sons. Such stories may even initiate healing where healing is needed, and better understanding where it may be required. Mothers and daughters could find the inner reflections of these men of interest as they reflect on their relationships with their fathers, husbands, and sons. Perhaps wives, mothers, daughters, and friends will gain new insight into the man they love.
