Recenzii

Woodward overviews the increasingly complex terrain of gender studies in a lucid, concise and readable manner. She charts theoretical developments and contentious debates in the field with contemporary and relevant examples which will resonate with a wide readership. Barbara Pini, Curtin University of Technology, Australia

In this accessible, exciting and important new text, Woodward interrogates both the conceptual and policy implications of gender in a lively and very topical way. She reveals how gender needs to be continually rethought, given its ongoing use in a diversity of ways by theorists across a range of disciplines, as well as how it still matters in the social world. Vicki Robinson, University of Sheffield, UK
