Write a Book Review on Self-Made Man and Connection to Gender Communications Concepts.

essay on the book Self Made Man by Norah Vincent. The paper has to connect a theme from the book to concepts learned in my gender communications class. Here are some concepts we learned that would be easiest to use: goffman theory, alternate paths model, terministic screens, both men and women stereotypes, and critical theory. Critical theory centers around power and the power dynamics that exist in a society. Many critical theorists are interested in how power is achieved and maintained in a society and the systems of oppression that are developed to keep those without power from attaining it. here are the instructions my professor gave me, “Pick a theme or part of the book you find interesting and connect it to the theoretical concepts discussed in class. You have lots of freedom on this assignment. Some people pick a very specific aspect of the book, others choose a theme that appears in several chapters. Demonstrate your analytical abilities. Be sure to link your work to the theories/ideas we’ve discussed throughout class.”
