Summary

For the past decade, the work of Sarah Fenstermaker and Candace West has revolutionized our understanding of gender and the notion of difference. Now for the first time these repeatedly anthologized works have been collected along with new essays to provide a complete understanding of this topic of tremendous importance to scholars in sociology, women's studies and other social sciences. With a foreword by distinguished scholar, Dorothy Smith, and with pieces by Barrie Thorne, Howard Winant, and Patricia Hill Collins among others, this collection will serve as the definitive guide for gender and difference scholars.
