Gender and Ageing: Changing Roles and RelationshipsThis book is a follow-up to Arber and Ginn's award winning Connecting Gender and Ageing (1995). It contains original chapters from eminent writers on gender and ageing, addressing newly emergent areas within gender and ageing, including gender identity and masculinity in later life. Early work on gender and ageing was dominated by a focus on older women. The present collection breaks with this tradition by emphasizing changing gender roles and relationships, gender identity and an examination of masculinities in midlife and later life. |

Every social gerontologist needs to read this book. It is clear, rational and takes a new approach towards gender and ageing. The introduction is excellent.
