In this multidisciplinary portrait of men and their concerns in later life, the contributors use both a life course and gendered perspective to point out that the image and self-image of men are continually reconstructed throughout the life cycle. Issues examined include: the position of older men in society and the changes wrought in their status and roles over time; men's relationships to spouse, children, grandchildren and friends; and policy implications.Thompson, Edward H., Jr. is the author of 'Older Men's Lives', published 1994 under ISBN 9780803950818 and ISBN 0803950810.
