Even though Farrells was my first book to lay it on the table in all it's grizzly details, Jack's book actually gave me my first verbal defense weapons, when attacked, but also some some great 'idea-grenades' for parties and gatherings. This one will be on my shelf in easy reach, and it's good to see it made it from e-book to a printed version. One would wonder why it took so long,..hmmmmm. OH yeah thats right! Fear of Pheminists, and media censorship. By the way, Trudy, this is the book I snarfed the term Pheminist from, so if you ever wondered...:-)

I downloaded this book soon after learning about it. I agree with Scott that it's a unique approach and might work for some who would otherwise not take the time or effort to read a Farrell or Hoff-Sommers.
Does anyone know where the print version can be found? Amazon doesn't seem to have it and no one at any of the bookstores I've tried knows of it.

It's known as a 'vanity publishing', or self-published through his website. You get a sizable discount for pre-ordering because it helps provide the upfront money for it, but I seriously doubt it will ever see the shelves of a Barnes and Noble, in light of how they've responded before to requests to have certain mens-studies books in stock. Also, while you are at it, ask Jack for some of the 'post-its', which are little yellow post-it notes you can stick all over the place, like in wimyns studies areas of bookstores (my personal fav!), resteraunts, etc.,.

Thanks starzabuv.
You're right about the yellow post-its. I got some a while back and have tried to place them strategically. At the local Half-Price book store I put one on the back face of the eye-level shelf of the men's section (Yes! They actually have a men's section!). Anyone looking at the men's section couldn't miss it. I expected it to be taken down in a very short time but I went back a month later and it was still up and visible. I visit the store about once a month and it was several months before it had been removed, despite the store being quite clean and well kept. So I did my good deed for the day and put up another one.
I also like the lockers at my gym, although they don't last long there. Hopefully users of the lockers are taking them for reference.
