Reviews

Ed Thompson draws deep from his impressive expertise to provide an encyclopedic look at theory and research on aging masculinity. Listening to old men, he shows that they remain men even as they slow down, stand down from the combat of youth, and slim their social networks with advancing age. This book amounts to a vital survey of the rapidly growing field that Thompson pioneered., Men, Masculinities and Aging is an excellent, enjoyable read which comprehensively covers the gendered lives of older men. It provides a critical analysis of the gendered lives of older men drawing attention to masculinities, health and the social worlds of older men. I will certainly be recommending this book to my third year elective module on the psychology of aging and to my graduate students., [The book] brings together a mass of information and analyses, based on the author's very wide knowledge, and reviews many studies, including the author's own, but especially those of other researchers. It is solidly empirical and based, along with intersectionality and critical gerontology, in the developing tradition of critical studies of men, masculinities, and aging. . . . Men, Masculinities, and Aging will be especially useful in studies on gender and sexuality, social care and social work, health, and social gerontology. I see the book as mainly for educators, students, and researchers, but professionals and practitioners would also find much of interest here in suggesting more flexible approaches to policy and practice. Being jam-packed full of research results and insights makes it a valuable reference text: for example, for students seeking summaries of relevant studies. I think this book. . . will become a standard text on men, masculinities, and aging. . . . this is a major contribution in gathering together empirical material on old men's lived experiences, and is a must-buy for all interested in the topic., In what will be a seminal work in the field, Men, Masculinities, and Aging fuses multiple theoretical and disciplinary traditions and gives voice to the gendered lives of old men through careful and novel theoretical analysis, and vivid narratives., In what will be a seminal work in the field, Men, Masculinities, and Aging fuses multiple theoretical and disciplinary traditions and gives voice to the gendered lives of old men through careful and novel theoretical analysis and vivid narratives.
