Style and the Man

As I student of gender, I was happy to find this book. From images of Batman to Armani, the authors pull together what it means to be manly in our era and the one before. Pictures are spread through out and fit perfectly. It's a fun book just to fip through. Once you start reading the articles are intelligent and well connected. There's nothing else like this on the market and is well worth the price.
