The Making of Masculinities (Routledge Revivals)

This book, first published in 1987, is both simple in conception and ambitious in intention. It aims at legitimating the new interdisciplinary field of men''s studies as one of the most significant and challenging intellectual and curricular developments in academia. The fourteen essays included here are drawn from such diverse disciplines as men''s studies, philosophy, psychology, sociology, history, anthropology, Black studies, biology, English literature, and gay studies.
