Winner of The Raewyn Connell Prize 2010, awarded bienially for the best authored first monograph in Australian Sociology
'the most ambitious study of its kind...and one of the most enlightening' - Journal of Australian Studies
'...a thoughtful and detailed work.' - Blaze
'Here is the tale of three waves of gay men - the oldest born in 1922 and the youngest in 1980. It shows just how central age is in social life and how queer worlds have been radically transformed in a very short period of time. It gives us hope. Rich in detail, uplifting and unfussy, this delightful book provides an uneven but undeniable story of progress.' - Ken Plummer, Emeritus Professor of Sociology, University of Essex. Editor of Sexualities, and author of Intimate Citizenship
