It draws on data collected from interviews with 82 men in Australia, England, New Zealand, and USA. The first half of the book concentrates on the men’s working lives, while the second half of the book explores the interviewees’ concerns about old age and retirement. The author analyses the men’s contrasting stories, highlighting key generational differences in their experience of being ‘out’ in the workplace and the dominant work narratives which emerge in each age group. This important work will have cross-disciplinary appeal to scholars of sociology, gerontology, health sciences, gender, queer, and gay and lesbian studies, as well as practitioners.Genders and Sexualities in the Social SciencesSociologyIndustrial sociologySocial groupsFamilyEthnologyGender Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000Sociology of Workhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22240Sociology of Family, Youth and Aginghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22080Social Anthropologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12030Sociology.Industrial sociology.Social groups.Family.Ethnology.Gender Studies.Sociology of Work.Sociology of Family, Youth and Aging.Social Anthropology.306.7662Robinson Peterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut11817McQueen Humphrey1942-BOOK9910252703203321Gay Men’s Working Lives, Retirement and Old Age2534493UNINA
