| book description |
The sixth edition of this leading textbook provides a comprehensive and insightful overview of key issues and debates in gender and women's studies. With fully revised chapters written by specialists across a range of core topics including sexuality, race, bodies, family, masculinity, methodologies and migration, this is a student-friendly yet rigorous survey of the key concepts and contemporary debates in the field. It provides helpful examples to illustrate how gender theories relate to current societal issues, thoughtful questions to guide revision, and further reading to help students explore the topics in greater depth. Furthermore, the book continues to reflect the shift from women's studies to gender studies. It incorporates coverage of masculinities throughout, as well as engaging with live debates such as trans rights, global activism, and the environment. This is an essential textbook for students, academics and anyone interested in this lively field. New to this Edition: - Expanded coverage of gender-based violence, masculinities, migration, and the impact of the climate crisis - New coverage of division overs trans rights, the rise of opposition to gender and sexual equalities around the globe, and digital and social media issues - Greater attention to intersectional approaches and international reach - New pedagogy to help students apply gender theories in practice, and a new glossary to help students get to grips with new concepts and terminology.
