The fifth volume in the Fundamentals of Philosophy Series, Debating
Sex and Gender by Georgia Warnke is a concise yet in-depth
introduction to contemporary feminist thought on sex and gender.
Featuring a lucid and accessible writing style, the book focuses on
four historical debates: the relation and possible distinction
between sex (biologically based) and gender (culturally based);
questioning the binary (male-female) character of sex and gender;
the idea of gender as a performance and as a performative; and the
intersection of gender with race, class, and other features of
identity. These discussions serve as guides for the first four
chapters of the book. The fifth chapter strives to resolve the four
issues by situating sex and gender within a broader theory of
identity, arguing that sex and gender are ways of understanding who
people are and do not define us any more than other characteristics
do. Unique in its exploration of several different debates--and
their relationship to each other--Debating Sex and Gender is ideal
for use in a variety of feminist philosophy, women's studies, and
gender studies courses.
