Publisher's Synopsis
Learn about the way men see themselves today and their actions for gender equality. A unique dialogue with men from 12 countries of various ages and ethnicities with a variety of viewpoints. They represent different branches of the men's movement as they discuss their understandings of masculinities. Topics include: Overview of Men's Changing Roles, What We Teach Boys about Masculinities, Pro-Feminism, Father Absence is a Key Issue, Differences between Feminism and Equalism, Men's Groups and Community, and Solutions and Models. Countries represented include: Brazil, Britain, Canada, China, France, Germany, Iceland, India, Kenya, Netherlands, South Africa, United States, and Zambia. Professor Robert Morrell observed from South Africa, "In a world of polarisation, suspicion, and hostility, Dr. Kimball offers us the chance to occupy middle ground and talk about difficult gender stuff, a great job in putting the two sides (and more) of the debates in ways that promote discussion rather than polarise".
