The Seasons of a Man's Life
Book • 1978
This book is a comprehensive study on the developmental stages of men's lives, conducted over two decades in the 1960s and 1970s.
It identifies four primary cycles: Childhood and Adolescence (0-22), Early Adulthood (17-45), Middle Adulthood (40-65), and Late Adulthood (60+).
The study emphasizes critical transitions such as the Age Thirty Transition, the Settling Down Period, and the Mid-Life Transition, highlighting how these periods shape a man's life structure and his pursuit of his 'Dream'.
The research was based on interviews with 40 middle-aged men and provides insights into the universal patterns and crises men face at different stages of their lives.
