When men experience a loss, their first step may be to move inward into their solitude, where they can express themselves, confront what has happened, deal with feelings, and begin to sort out their next steps.  Typically, this process helps them to move beyond their solitude into relationship again with the significant people in their lives.  This book explores why this process may be important for men, tells stories of men coping with loss, and looks at gender differences in grief and the various doors into the core of grief. In addition, it examines how to be helpful to men working through loss, as well as how men can affirm and understand a way of grieving and healing that fits them.
