Abstract:	This book is an outcome of the HIV & AIDS Media Project, in which South African journalists undertook in-depth research looking to write about men, masculinity and HIV/AIDS in a new way. The book contains a collection of articles, blogs and photo essays that show a diversity of men, each facing a unique context and dealing with sexual health and relationships differently. The book consists of four sections, structured around the following themes: Men as lovers (Willemien Brümmer); Men as fathers and partners (Lungi Langa & Thabisile Dlamini); Men who have sex with men (Pieter van Zyl); Male circumcision (Mthetho Tshemese & Wilson Johwa) [ASC Leiden abstract]
