CHARLES CORNISH-DALE In The Last Men: Liberalism and the Death of Masculinity , the Raw Egg Nationalist himself, Dr. Charles Cornish-Dale, delivers a provocative examination of the various biological and cultural forces eroding masculinity in contemporary society. Reinterpreting Francis Fukuyama’s The End of History and the Last Man through this biological lens, Cornish-Dale contends that the modern “Last Man” isn’t just a cultural archetype, but a physiological reality shaped by endocrine disruptors, processed food, and a political system hostile to masculine vitality. Beyond diagnosis, The Last Men offers solutions, from lifestyle interventions to broader political questions: Can masculinity survive under liberal democracy?","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9781510786783","publication_date":"20251216","publisher":"Skyhorse Publishing","slug":"the-last-men","subtitle":"Liberalism and the Death of Masculinity","title":"The Last Men"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"POL042020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Conservatism & Liberalism","score":0.7117,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"POL042040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Radical Politics","score":0.703,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"POL042050","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Libertarianism","score":0.701,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"hint":[{"bisac_code":"POL042020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Conservatism & Liberalism","score":0.7117,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"POL042040","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Radical Politics","score":0.703,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"POL042050","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Libertarianism","score":0.701,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"PHI019000","confidence_band":"high","label":"Political Philosophy","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"POL042030","confidence_band":"high","label":"Fascism & Totalitarianism","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"POL042040","confidence_band":"high","label":"Radical Politics","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"Conservatism & Liberalism","score":0.7117,"slug":"conservatism-liberalism"},{"label":"Radical Politics","score":0.703,"slug":"radical-politics"},{"label":"Libertarianism","score":0.701,"slug":"libertarianism"}],"reader_fit":["Good for readers interested in biological and cultural forces affecting masculinity","Good for readers interested in lifestyle and political responses to declining masculinity"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Patrick J.
