Description
This is the first textbook in women's studies to offer a comprehensive and critical analysis of the major issues and topics within key areas of the subject including feminist theory, race, sexuality, violence, education, the family, representation, work, and debates within women's studies itself. More than a reader, this is a key text for students of women's studies and those interested generally in feminist perspectives.
