Opis

First published in 1999, this volume took part in the emerging sociological debate on gender in the workplace by studying men’s work, lives, gender roles and psychological health through the gender lens.

Recenzje

’John Goodwin’s book should be welcomed by those with an interest in masculinities and by those with an interest in the sociology of work...The tackling of quantitative data like that from the NCDS was a very welcome contribution to the literature on men’s lives.’ Work, Employment and Society
