"Men Talk draws on rich conversational material from a wide range of contexts to answer these questions and illuminate our understanding of men and masculinities at the turn of the millennium. Coates examines spontaneous conversations involving all-male groups, ranging from garage mechanics on a break and carpenters at the pub after work, to university academics chatting at work after hours, as well as a variety of mixed groups.
The focus of the book is the stories that occur within these conversations."--BOOK JACKET.
