The descent of man / Grayson Perry.
The descent of man / Grayson Perry.
Author: Perry, Grayson, 1960-
Publication year: 2017
Language: English
Format: Paperback
Classification: 305.31
Publisher: Penguin Books, 2017.

ISBN: 9780141981741 (pbk.) :
Notes:
"An Allen Lane book"--Back cover.
Originally published: London: Allen Lane, 2016.
What is masculinity and what can it become? It might seem like a luxury in a world facing climate change and vast imbalances in global wealth, but Grayson Perry sees masculinity as a highly active component in all the big issues. Tracing the contours of the dominant male role today, its history and its clearly defined rules, he explores everything from sex, seriousness and intimidation to clothing, childhood and power, providing a more modern model of manhood which may reach escape velocity from the gravity of traditional man.
