Publisher's Synopsis

Sociological  and  gerontological  research  concerning  men's  ageing  remains  piecemeal  and  under-theorised  despite  recognition  of  the  gendered  nature  of  ageing  and  burgeoning  recognition  that  older  people  and  their  needs  are  largely  absent  and  less  considered  in  academic  and  public  rhetoric.  The  contributors  to  this  one-day  workshop  sought  to  improve  understanding  of  contemporary  men's  ageing  by  showcasing  current  research  in  this  area,  to  forge  a  multi-disciplinary  network  of  scholars,  practitioners  and  end  users  interested  in  men's  ageing,  and  to  generate  future research collaborations.
