While there has been a gradual increase in scholarship on men,
ageing and masculinities, little attention has been paid to the
social relations of men in later life and the implications for
enhancing their social wellbeing and counteracting ageist
discourse. Bringing together scholars in social gerontology and the
social sciences from across Global North and South nations, this
collection fills the gaps in key texts by foregrounding older
men’s experiences. It provides new perspectives across the
intersections of old age, ethnicities, class and sexual and gender
identity, paying particular attention to older men from seldom
heard or marginalised groups.
This book provides a clear and accessible account and analysis of
French criminal law in English, the first to have been written.
French criminal law has been highly influential in the development
of criminal law in civil law countries around the world, and a
knowledge of French criminal law has become increasingly important
in view of the internationalisation and Europeanisation of criminal
law. The book provides a historical introduction to the development
of French criminal law, and a chapter on French criminal procedure
to provide the context for an understanding of substantive criminal
law. Subsequent chapters cover the general principles of French
criminal law, analysing actus reus, mens rea, parties to crime,
inchoate offences and general defences. The major offences are then
considered chapter by chapter, and an Appendix provides in both
French and English the key provisions of the French Criminal Code.

Today, there are over 200,000,000 women business owners around the
world. Many of these entrepreneurs are not doing business as usual,
nor are they simply leaning in. Rather, they are tapping into
feminine capital-the unique skills and sensibilities that they have
cultivated as women-to create enviable successes. Drawing on four
decades of award-winning research, Feminine Capital reveals how
women are harnessing different approaches to doing business.
Barbara Orser and Catherine Elliott detail the pillars of feminine
capital and offer new insight into the ways that gender can
influence entrepreneurial decision-making. They find that
leveraging feminine capital can help women to create distinctive
brands, build new markets, and drive profits-all while leveling the
playing field in business. In doing so, women are changing our
social and economic landscape, one venture at a time. Dispelling
myths and misperceptions that can undermine women-owned ventures,
this book takes a fresh look at how female entrepreneurs can
leverage their skills, knowledge, and values. Case studies of women
entrepreneurs bring key concepts and lessons to life, while
learning aids, diagnostic tools, and checklists help readers to
construct innovative business models, refine start-up plans, and
hone growth strategies.
