Originally published in 1987. This book addresses a reappraisal of
the processes of gender development and its social and educational
consequences. It provides examples of key research topics and
methods used for the exploration of gender and education and
suggests direction for further inquiry. Unique in its depth and
range of coverage, it is still helpful reading for students of
education and practising teachers and administrators. A major theme
of the book is the relationship between class, racism, sexuality
and education. Divided into five parts, the first offers new
critical analysis of theories of gender difference, while the
following sections focus on four lines of inquiry into education:
exploring the past (through autobiography and life history);
evaluating the implicit messages contained in texts; investigating
gender dynamics within schools; and researching teachers'
expectations and their attempts to change practice.
