Discover a path to understanding modern masculinity and find inspiration for personal and professional life.
Scott Galloway, bestselling author and professor, opens up an important topic increasingly shaping our societies - the crisis of male identity and its impact on families and communities.

Why read Notes on Being a Man?

Richly written, Notes on Being a Man offers a deep look at the contemporary challenges men face in Western democracies. Galloway analyzes alarming statistics about education, social isolation, and men’s mental health, emphasizing the importance of developing healthy masculinity. The book is not only a personal confessional-covering childhood, difficult life events including his parents' divorce, struggles with depression, and efforts to succeed-but also a practical guide. It provides useful advice for men and parents of boys on how to find inner strength, overcome anxiety, and become better partners, fathers, and people.

Galloway does not hide that the crisis of masculinity is not an isolated problem. It affects women and children too, because their well-being is closely tied to the quality of life of the men around them. He teaches why it’s important to take risks, persevere in personal growth, and be kind. The book is full of inspiring life lessons and concrete steps for improvement.
