The second edition of Andrea Doucet’s Do Men Mother? builds upon the award winning first edition to further illuminate fathers' candid reflections on caring and the intricate social worlds that men and women inhabit as they ‘love and let go’ of their children.

Andrea Doucet is a professor and Canada Research Chair in Gender, Work and Care in the Department of Sociology at Brock University.

"The first edition of Do Men Mother? has become a landmark text in the field. There has been an explosion in both fatherhood studies and scholarship on masculinities, and in the revised second edition, Doucet further cements her status as one of the leading scholars of fatherhood studies."

Erin Kramer Holmes, School of Family Life, Brigham Young University:

"Doucet does an excellent job of diving into the theoretical questions without overwhelming her audience. The synthesis of theory and research is presented with the stories of the fathers, in a clear, easy-to-follow narrative."

Ann Crittenden, author of 'The Price of Motherhood: Why the Most Important Job in the World Is Still the Least Valued':
“Andrea Doucet’s carefully researched book provides a fascinating answer to the question, “Do men mother?” Fathers do, but in their own unique way, and this compelling book speaks to how we must find new ways of encouraging male nurturance.”

Sara Ruddick, Eugene Lang College, New School for Social Research:

“Andrea Doucet takes a familiar question and explores it in a forthright, original, and compassionate way. Through careful qualitative research with a diverse group of men, she illuminates contemporary fathering and makes a serious and strong contribution to our theoretical understandings of fathering and mothering.”
