This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. A Handbook of Men’s Health is more than a ready reference for nurses in public health, health promotion and general clinical practice; chapters follow through each stage of life, from youth to maturity, so that readers can quickly find the information they need. A chapter on the law and ethics provides a professional guide to complex areas such as the rights of same-sex couples, men’s access to children, anti-discrimination legislation, sexual abuse of males and infertility treatments. This will be an essential tool for all nurses practising men’s health or simply working with men. * detailed procedures and investigations * evidence-based information * boxes highlighting key points and concepts * guidelines issued by professional bodies to promote best practice * exercises encouraging critical reflection on current practices and social norms * a wide range of websites and references to important resources
