The premise is that social constructions of masculinity function simultaneously as foils for femininity and as methods of differentiating between \"kinds\" of men. In exploring scientific masculinities, the book asks: how has masculinity been defined, and what are the mechanisms by which it operates in science? The essays are divided into sections that emphasize the importance of gender to the practices of professionalization, the spaces in which scientific, technological, and medical labor is performed, and the ways that sex, gender, and sexual orientation are measured and serve as metaphors in society and culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erika Lorraine Milam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022626761X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226267616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.80w x 0.50d","brand":"Erika Lorraine Milam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447599935743,"sku":"9780226267616","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b71b27d3-fa3f-4d07-91a6-3b58b8d0ea39.jpg?v=1777233770","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/osiris-volume-30-erika-lorraine-milam-9780226267616","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
