Beskrivning
Introduction to Women's and Gender Studies: An Interdisciplinary Approach, Third Edition, is a truly interdisciplinary and intersectional text featuring global examples for women's, gender, and sexuality studies. Its student-centered rhetorical approach and pedagogical features--including an engaging image program, prompts for activism, a comprehensive glossary, appendices of key terms, annotated bibliographies for additional reading, and "Feminisms in Brief"--aid students in assimilating fundamental women's and gender studies terms and concepts. While it is a textbook and not an anthology, Introduction to Women's and Gender Studies adopts the best facets of the anthology approach: it includes discussions of frequently anthologized writers and writing that is more engaging and narrative in style than traditional textbooks. The book systematically covers core interdisciplinary concepts so that students are prepared for women's and gender studies courses in a variety of disciplines.

This is not only one of the best textbooks out there for the subject matter, but also one of the best textbooks on any subject matter in the Humanities. I am truly impressed with this work. It is balanced and complete in its coverage. This is a truly impressive textbook. I start off every iteration of this introductory course by sharing with students that I don't generally deploy textbooks in my courses; however, I make an exception in this case since this is a text that does not simplify the material, yet renders the complex terrain readily understandable. A rare feat. It is by far the best discussion of the subject matter out there
