Abstract

Männer im Übergang zur Vaterschaft (Men in transition to fatherhood) by Ariane Schorn is an interesting and recommendable book. It is concerned with an important yet little explored aspect of the everyday life of a majority of people—after all, between 70 and 80 percent of all men become fathers at some point in their life. The book shows a lively, but not always simple process in a time that is quite difficult for the family triad.
