Traditionally, men s mental health woes have been attributed to male stubbornness and rigid notions of masculinity. However, there is growing recognition that mental health issues in men are socially determined by a range of factors including family, educational, occupational, and legal issues. These and a variety of other social issues have been collectively labelled men s issues and are being increasingly linked to negative men s mental health outcomes. This book gives an overview of men s mental health as well as related men s issues, adopting a public-health-inspired approach examining the research linking social exposures and mental health outcomes. The book is unique in that it synthesizes and explores men s issues, men s mental health, and social determinants in a holistic and integrated manner through assessment of the social scientific and psychiatric literature.
