Summary:

"This volume is an essential reference for designing, analysing and reflecting on field research. It advances the literature on gender by taking a specific focus on masculinity. The accounts of gendered field experiences further the call for gender positionality in research, will aid researchers and be a useful tool for supervisors"-- Provided by publisher.
