by Edward H. Thompson (Author)
Men, Masculinities, and Aging explores the intersections of generations, class, geographies, and masculinities. It offers a fresh perspective on men's experiences with bodily aging, growing older within ageist societies, and navigating the virtual absence of cultural guidelines for being an old man.
