A lavishly illustrated intimate glimpse into the life of legendary guitarist and rock ‘n’ roll icon Eddie Cochran, through unique access to never-before-seen personal treasures that were thought to be lost for more than sixty years.

Historien er fuld af store mænd: forfattere og feltherrer, sportsudøvere og statsmænd. Op gennem årene er vi blevet indprentet bestemte forestillinger om, hvordan mænd er - og bør være. Manden er fader, forsørger og formynder. Han er driftig og har et stærkt naturligt begær efter succes - og kvinder. Mænd - køn under forvandling tegner et mere komplekst billede af mænd og mandighed. I dag indtager manden meget forskellige roller og positioner i samfundet, og spørgsmålet er, om der nu eksisterer en form for moderne og anderledes maskulinitet? Gennem en række konkrete nedslag gør bogen op med myter og fordomme om mænd og mandighed og demonstrerer det komplekse forhold mellem forestillinger om maskulinitet og konkrete udlevelser af maskulinitet. Ud over at behandle emner som arbejdsliv, faderskab og sundhed sætter bogen fokus på ligestillingsdebatten og mere kontroversielle emner som mandlige voldsudøvere, prostitutionskunder samt krise- og depressionsramte mænd. Desuden rummer bogen en diskussion af forholdet mellem maskulinitet, etnicitet og faderskab - et emne, der ikke er skrevet meget om i Danmark.
