Stephen A. Shapiro

American author and psychotherapist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stephen A. Shapiro was an American author, psychotherapist, management consultant and founding executive of the Volunteer Counselling Service of Rockland County, New York.[1][2] His most famous book is "Manhood, a new definition,"[3] in which inspiring himself from real life cases, personal experience and recent feminist literature, he analyses behavioural patterns of contemporary men and their relationship with women, and suggests solutions to their limits and dissatisfactions. "Manhood" is quoted by Canadian psychoanalyst Guy Corneau in his renowned work "Absent fathers, lost sons"[4] as a landmark in the new movement of masculinity analysis which started in the late 1970s.
