N2  - Who is today's white-collar man? The world of work has changed radically since 'The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit' and other mid-20th-century investigations of corporate life and identity. Contemporary jobs are more precarious, casual Friday has become an institution and telecommuting blurs the divide between workplace and home. Gender expectations have changed, too, with men's bodies increasingly exposed in the media and scrutinised in everyday interactions.
