'In Plural Masculinities, Sofia Aboim gives an intelligent and original re-thinking of concepts of masculinity, and a fascinating set of empirical investigations. Turning the focus on ordinary men and complicit masculinities, she offers an important new vision of change in intimate relationships - and a sobering account of the limits of change.' Raewyn Connell, University of Sydney, Australia 'It is rare to find a book that combines sophisticated feminist and gender theoretical debate with both comparative quantitative data and qualitative interview analysis. This is such a book. It is a very significant contribution not only to theorizing plural, including dominant, masculinities, but also to multi-method research and broadening gender research away from Anglophone assumptions. It deserves to be read widely.' Jeff Hearn, LinkAping University, Sweden, University of Huddersfield, UK, and Hanken School of Economics, Finland
