The Way of the Superior Man

By: David Deida

Narrated by: Cecil Archbold

Length: 5 hrs and 22 mins

Publisher's summary

In the decades since the initial publication of The Way of the Superior Man, society has changed significantly. Issues of gender and sexuality long confined to secrecy have become part of everyday conversation, and rigid ideas about our societal roles have begun to dissolve.

And yet, perhaps now more than at any time, men of all ages still “tussle with the challenges of women, work, and sexual desire.” In this unabridged audiobook of the classic guide to masculine spirituality, David Deida encourages men and women to lean into the conversation and offer their most valuable assets to the world—their authentic heart and depth of presence.

More relevant than ever, The Way of the Superior Man offers a view of a more conscious and embodied masculinity. “It is time to evolve beyond the macho jerk ideal, all spine and no heart”, writes Deida. “It is also time to evolve beyond the sensitive and caring wimp ideal, all heart and no spine.”

Including a new preface written in celebration of the book’s 20th anniversary, The Way of the Superior Man presents the next generation of with the opportunity to grapple with fear, cultivate trust in the moment, and put forth the best versions of themselves in an ever-changing world.

A woman’s thoughts

Even as a woman “sourced within her feminine” , I have found this book having a profound impact on my life and quote it’s author frequently when talking to both my male and female friends. It’s insights are poignant, immensely perceptive, and rooted in realism while maintaining an uplifting and inspiring tone. I share it’s views with my parents who have been married for over 35 years, to my friends struggling to find confidence in new careers and maintaining or starting new relationships. Between this book and it’s teaching sessions which I have also listened to multiple times as well, I have recommended it’s pages and continue to address its views to a very diverse collection of people.

Superior book

Life changing book that every man should read. I loved the polarity concept which is easier to keep in mind.

The MAN'S BIBLE

This book is filled with nothing but the truth that every male should be raised with.

Only book that you will ever need to listen to

The only book that you will ever need to listen to regarding feminine-masculine dynamics. He speaks without offending God and approximates truth in his articulation of these dynamics. Very practical, clear, and empowering.

This is one of the best books out to help if you need guidance love it read it 3 time will keep reading it

You need to read this

You are a man or you want to leave and understand the relationship between female and masculinity you must read this book

Worth reading

Any and all man should read this book. As a women myself great insight on men. Book gave me clear idea of the man that I was seeking that I couldn’t identify.

It’s very masculine and unapologetically so.

This book is on our books to read before marriage list. It was recommended to me by my best friend. As a woman it was quite hard to stay focus for the first few chapters getting use to the way the book is written. It’s very masculine and unapologetically so.

In the end this book gives a woman a way to assess how she reacts in a relationship as a response to her man/ masculine counterpart. I definitely at some points got so frustrated that I had to come back later. I believe this book is great for women and especially men.

I’ve learned so much from this book and my relationship has benefited from this book. I do the best I can to create more space his masculine energy to thrive. He has meant my challenge well and ravishingly so☺️👋🏾😅

Phenomenal lessons

I really enjoyed this book. Great tips and explanations for both Men and women. I will recommend this to all men.

Efficient book

I think It is a good book for enhancing our relationship. However, I beilive it is more effective if I read it as a complementary book. Every author has his/her point of view about relationship and as a reader I have my point of view. So I feel that by reading these kind of books people can earn just 10 percent of knowledge and 90 percent of that is by practicing and knowing ourselve better.
