Jessie Bernard Reader (Paperback)

Jessie Bernard was one of the foremost early feminist sociologists and public intellectuals in women 's studies. In "The Jessie Bernard Reader," Michael S. Kimmel and Yasemin Besen have compiled her most intriguing and influential work on marriage, the family, sexuality, and changing women 's roles in the United States. Bernard 's pioneering works bridged the gap between academic social science and public advocacy for gender equality. Her books were landmarks in demarcating the effects of the separation of spheres. Among her most celebrated arguments was that couples experienced two different marriages, his and hers and that his was better than hers. This volume will inspire a new generation of scholars, a generation that inherits the gains for which Bernard struggled her entire career.
