Why have we failed so badly to end men’s violence against women?
What can we actually do about it?
This insightful, provocative and practical handbook suggests a bold and potentially game-changing solution.
Pioneering educator, expert scholar, and activist Jackson Katz has spent the last 30 years educating people around the world on men's violence against women, and advocates that although not all men are part of the problem, every man can -- and should -- be part of the solution.
In this galvanizing book, Jackson reveals indispensable everyday tools that will help men from all walks of life become part of the solution to gender-based violence. Find out how to respond when a friend or colleague makes a misogynistic comment; learn how to intervene in incidents that may seem small but can lead to violence; and discover how you can become a role model for boys and men who need positive leadership in their lives.
This is the essential reading for every man who wants help build a healthier and safer society.

Critics Review
-
Gaining the ability and confidence to interrupt sexist behaviour from men is the main purpose of Katz's book ... a practical toolkit for men to think about ways in which they can challenge difficult behaviour
The Guardian
-
Refreshing ... Katz is someone who cares as much about men as we feminists do about women, and reading his book - which is clearly set out as a call to action, more men might be inspired to join him
The Telegraph
-
Unflinchingly honest, Every Man equips men with the tools to become true allies. Katz doesn't offer empty promises or performative gestures; instead, he lays out the concrete actions every man can take to help dismantle gender violence. This is the handbook our culture so desperately needs

-
True ally-ship can be hard to come by in this area and harder still to define, but Katz has laid out a blueprint for what men can do and is leading by example. An important book at a critical time

A must-read for men who want to learn more about what they can do to end violence against women
Professor Nicole Westmarland, Durham University Centre for Research into Violence and Abuse
-
The right book by the right person at the right time. Katz provides not just a compelling why, but also the tangible how, giving men the reason and the tools to be an active part of making the world a fairer and safer place. In an increasingly volatile world, this book tackles an uncomfortable reality in a way that brings people together. This is a must-read for any man looking to break free from the systems that hold us back
Lee Chambers, psychologist and Founder of Male Allies UK
-
The violence that some men commit against women and girls is an issue for all men: it harms the women and girls we love, gives all men a bad name, and hurts our communities. Jackson Katz invites every man to have the courage to speak up and challenge this abuse. Katz is an outstanding educator and thought leader, and this book provides essential tools, language, and action for making change
Professor Michael Flood, author of Engaging Men and Boys in Violence Prevention
-
Bold but deeply rooted in compassion, Katz's writing offers us a roadmap too compelling to ignore. This is the kind of wisdom you feel inspired to study over and over again
Gina Martin

In this timely and urgent book, Jackson Katz calls on men to confront the uncomfortable truths about male violence. He offers a practical and transformative blueprint for those who want to play a crucial role in promoting safe, healthy relationships. Katz's efforts have a movement not only in North America but globally. I urge all men-especially those who love the women in their lives-to read this book and reflect on the critical role they can play in breaking the cycle of violence
Deeyah Khan, BAFTA and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and human rights activist
-
This book is a powerful starter guide for men who are willing to challenge the roots of misogyny within themselves and society. Katz calls on men to take accountability and be active allies in ending violence against women and girls, which we have all been asking for. The book I'm going to give to the men in my life who are at the beginning of their journey into understanding feminism
