Book Information

Winner of the Nautilus Gold Award for "exceptional literary contributions." Previous winners include the Dalai Lama and Deepak Chopra. To advance businesses, societies, and families, it's time to treat dads as equal caregivers to their children. Time for all of us, men and women, to correct our understandings of men. All In shatters myths about fathers. It shows that women can't get equal opportunities in the workplace if men can't get equal opportunities at home. It is being called a "rallying cry," the "anthem" of our time, igniting a revolution for gender equality. "Fantastic" - New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow "A must-read" - Washington Post’s Brigid Schulte "Fascinating" - Chicago Tribune "One of the top books of the year" - NewsOne “Groundbreaking... Should be mandatory reading for every CEO" - Debra Isaacs Schafer, CEO of Education Navigation See endorsements from Maria Shriver, Bob Saget, top officials at Change.org and Twitter, and more on the book jacket and at joshlevs.com. Josh Levs spent 20 years reporting for NPR and CNN, where he became a lead on-air fact checker. He then turned his attention to modern parenthood, stunning viewers with frank discussions among men. Then, Levs was denied fair parental leave to care for his preemie daughter and sick wife. He responded with legal action against CNN/Time Warner and a public campaign that landed him on the front page of the New York Times. His effort drew support from all sectors across the United States and worldwide. The company ultimately revolutionized its policy for the better -- and other numerous other corporations have followed suit. Topics covered in All In include: Why paternity leave is a crucial women's rights issue Why paid family leave is a baby's human right How Mad Men thinking still plagues businesses How men and women can work together to update our work structures The solutions that lift profits and expand the economy The toll this problem is taking on men's and women's mental and physical health The truth about parents and sex And much more.
