Filosof, ph.d. og coach Kim Gørtz har skrevet en del bøger om filosofi og ledelse. Gennem længere tid har han villet skrive en bog om manden; hans genvordigheder, smerte, sorg, savn og forhåbninger. Erkend dig selv, mand kommer på et filosofisk, eksistentielt og personligt grundlag vidt omkring vor tids mands genvordigheder. Kim Gørtz beskriver med et glimt i øjet mandens væsen fra den antikke helt til den moderne slyngel. Han sammenligner og modstiller og tegner et billede af vor tids mand, der uanset type vil trives med at erkende sig selv som mand for at kunne håndtere livets grundfølelser, leve og opleve livet og se tilbage på sig selv som den mand, han virkelig er og ønsker at være. Med udgangspunkt i øjeblikket deler Kim Gørtz mandens erkendelsespraksis op i tre momenter: Dér, hvor han stopper op og opdager, at han enten blot er en skoldet skid i et par lærredsbukser eller en flue i en flaske, som farer relativt forvirret rundt og mangler et højere formål med sin tilværelse. Dér, hvor han ser sig selv efter i sømmene og går på opdagelse dybt inde og langt ude. Erkendelsesøjeblikket indtræffer, når han bevæger sig forbi og igennem det punkt, hvor han vitterlig formår at forbinde sin tilværelse med et formål, som er større og mindre end ham selv. Her finder han vished, balance, ro og fylde i livet. Erkend dig selv, mand er en filosofs frejdige, kække, ligefremme og bevidst anmassende fortælling – som en delvis egenberetning – om manden. Bogens formål er at inspirere manden til at styrke sin selvindsigt og handlingsudfald gennem tilvejebringelse af hans selverkendelse, finurligheder og genvordigheder, med henblik på at kunne være sig selv og være mand på den måde, han virkelig er og ønsker at være – og ikke på den måde, han tror, han skal være. Erkend dig selv, mand er bind 1 i VILDFARELSERNES TRILOGI, der handler om at få øje på alt det, vi aldrig har set eller ikke har kunnet se før, det, vi godt vidste, var der, men som vi havde glemt eller måske endda fortrængt.
