[ED: Taschenbuch / Paperback], [PU: VDM Verlag Dr. Müller], In studies on men s health, it has become commonplace to claim that hegemonic masculinity is in profound conflict with health-awareness and healthy lifestyle. This book questions this assumption by criticallyexploring how men discuss health, healthy lifestyle and masculinity on the basis of interviews with Finnish paper-mill workers. The study focuses on conflicts and dilemmas within and between constructions of healthiness and masculinity by analyzing men s interview talk on self-rated health, applicability of health information, men s health as a societal phenomenon, and bedrocks of personal healthy lifestyle. By shedding light on men s increased health-awareness and interest in health issues, the study challenges many of the prevailing assumptions of research on men s health and masculinities. As a conclusion, the study suggests that a key feature of modern hegemonic masculinity is asserting discursive competence in interaction for managing varying meanings related to gender and health. The book is useful and thought-provoking for academics and health professionals dealing with men s health, lay understanding of health and illness as well as gender studies., DE, [SC: 0.00], Neuware, gewerbliches Angebot, H: 220mm, 236, [GW: 325g], Selbstabholung und Barzahlung, PayPal, offene Rechnung, Banküberweisung, Internationaler Versand<
