Autorova kniha Mužství se během několika let stala v mnoha zemích bestsellerem. Byla provázena vlnou zájmu o téma role muže a otce v západní společnosti, jež se stává v mnoha ohledech zženštilou. Známý psycholog tvrdí, že v posledních desetiletích dochází k radikální proměně mužské mentality a že po dlouhém období emancipace ženství v podobě feminismu je třeba věnovat naopak velkou energii na záchranu opravdového mužství ve všech sférách společnosti. V nové verzi knihy autor shrnuje své nejnovější názory a předkládá témata, která jsou podle něj stále více aktuální: hledání „mužské podoby“ smyslu života; jak by měla vypadat opravdová „vášeň pro život“; práce na vytváření „lepšího světa“; co je to „život v plnosti“ a „žít naplno“. Steve Biddulph je australský rodinný terapeut a autor řady světoznámých bestsellerů. V Portálu vyšly jeho knihy Proč jsou šťastné děti šťastné, Tajemství výchovy šťastných dětí, Mužství, Výchova kluků.
