The writing is engaging in a way that allows readers to use concepts from the scientific literature to generate their own insights and conclusions. It is this balanced, thoughtful, and engaging style that makes The Psychology of Men in Context an instant classic." Aaron Rochlen, PhD, professor of counseling psychology and counselor education, Department of Educational Psychology, The University of Texas at Austin "The Psychology of Men in Context is a highly readable, accessible text that brings a fresh perspective to the psychology of gender and the psychology of men specifically. The authors focus on the history of research on men and masculinities is especially novel, and their discussion of this researchwhich occurs at the front end of the bookprovides important context for current debates and lines of inquiry related to the psychology of men. In addition to covering expected but necessary territory (biological and social contextual components of gender, for example), the text also delves into important yet less frequently explored topics related to the psychology of men, including intersectionalities (race, culture, social class) and methodologies. Peppered throughout the book are engaging points for consideration which draw the readers attention to critical points for contemplation and discussion. Key terms are highlighted throughout, making this text especially appropriate for introductory or mid-level courses on gender." Abbie E. Goldberg, PhD, professor of psychology and director of Womens and Gender Studies at Clark University "An excellent book that goes under the hood of the social, political, and scientific aspects of the psychology of men. Addis and Hoffman discuss complex issues in accessible language, making this text a must-have for anyone interested in learning about the history, science, and applications of this field." Ryon C. McDermott, PhD, University of South Alabama "This book is not afraid to tackle the difficult questions. It provides students with the tools needed to critically engage with complicated and emotionally-charged topics. The focus on context evades simplistic or reductionist thinking and demands that students consider their own lives while critically evaluating contemporary psychological research. My students have asked for a book like this one that does not offer easy answers, but forces all of us to take responsibility for the social forces shaping gender and masculinity."
