Book Description
Gender Through the Prism of Difference adopts a global, transnational perspective on how race, class, and sexual diversity are central to the study of sex and gender. In contrast with other books inthis area--which tend to focus on U.S. or European viewpoints--this wide-ranging anthology featuresmany articles based on research done elsewhere throughout the world. Now in its fifth edition, the book opens with a revised and updated Introduction that sets the stage for understanding genderas a socially constructed experience. Featuring twenty-eight new readings, this edition coverscompelling subjects like transgendered people, intersex issues, men and masculinity, sexual andgender violence, disabilities, obesity, reproductive technologies, educational testing, aging andageism, and Occupy Wall Street.
