Overview

In this rallying cry for a phlegmatic and fun brand of masculinity, Sam Delaney makes the case for a happier way of living. He proves you don't have to be a wanker to be a winner; and you don't need to be a hippy to be at peace. Understand why consistency is just another word for 'boring'; how process is the enemy of beauty; that rest is a fundamental human right; why male friendships in particular should be rooted in fun, not competitiveness; and that self-acceptance always trumps self-improvement.
