The Men's Code of Honor by Dan Stradford Pdf

The Men's Code of Honor touches a raw nerve in all males as it compels them to answer the ultimate question: Do they know how to "act like a man"? Drawing from male codes of conduct through history, this book is, as one young man put it, "everything a man knows he should be, looking deep into our own minds to find what makes us men, and if need be, how we can correct ourselves to be that man inside." Writer Dan Stradford opens by telling how a friend's son "asked me something about the way men treat women. I told him that an unspoken code exists among men that we all tend to subscribe to and this guides how we treat women. His father nodded in agreement. This brief incident passed but the moment stayed with me. Why is it, I wondered, that this 'code' is unspoken? Why hasn't anyone written it down?" And so began a five-year quest into the history of men's codes of conduct. Searching through military codes, athletic codes, cowboy codes, and many others, Stradford found 66 rules of conduct that had withstood the test of time - the essence of the unwritten code of honor amongst men. Each chapter covers a different sector - including Integrity, Duty, Work, Courage, Women, Children, and Family. To bring the points home, Stradford opens each with a raw story from his own life, rising from the poverty of St. Louis slums without a father to guide him. The Men's Code of Honor is a manual for women, too, as it lays bare the core drives, motives, and duties of men and how to measure the integrity and reliability of the men in their lives. Find out why this book has been hailed as "masterful," "brilliantly written," "transforming" and a must-read for men and women, young or old!

The Honor Code: How Moral Revolutions Happen by Kwame Anthony Appiah Pdf

"[Appiah's] work reveals the heart and sensitivity of a novelist. . . .Fascinating, erudite and beautifully written."—The New York Times Book Review In this groundbreaking work, Kwame Anthony Appiah, hailed as "one of the most relevant philosophers today" (New York Times Book Review), changes the way we understand human behavior and the way social reform is brought about. In brilliantly arguing that new democratic movements over the last century have not been driven by legislation from above, Appiah explores the end of the duel in aristocratic England, the tumultuous struggles over footbinding in nineteenth-century China, the uprising of ordinary people against Atlantic slavery, and the horrors of "honor killing" in contemporary Pakistan. Intertwining philosophy and historical narrative, he has created "a fascinating study of moral evolution" (Philadelphia Inquirer) that demonstrates the critical role honor plays a in the struggle against man's inhumanity to man.
