Men Giving Care : Reflections of Husbands and Sons Paperback / softback

Part of the Issues in Aging series

Paperback / softback

Description

The book is divided into two major parts, the first on husbands and the second on sons, with Chapter 1 providing background for both parts.

Chapter 1 gives a brief description of previous research on husbands and sons as caregivers.

It also describes the method used to gather information for this study from the 60 men interviewed and outlines the four research questions that guided the study: (1) What is it like for a man to take on a major caregiving role? (2) How does he adapt to and cope with his new functions? (3) What are his motivations for taking on this role? And (4) What, if any, meaning does he derive from this caregiving experience?First published in 1997.

Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
