Description
Why do men fear intimacy? Why are they drawn to science? Why does so much male art seem erotic in inspiration? This provocative book examines male behaviour and creativity, exploring the relationship between men's work and their personal sexual lives. Hudson and Jacot trace characteristic male behaviour to a developmental crisis experienced by infant boys as they distance themselves from their mothers and establish themselves as male, a crisis that inclines men to see people as things and things as people.
