"A wonderfully diverse array of classic and contemporary
readings"
--"Contemporary Psychology APA Review of Books"
In The Gender and Psychology Reader, Blythe McVicker Clinchy and
Julie K. Norem have culled through a diverse group of readings to
provide a wide-ranging exploration of both progress made and
problems encountered as psychologists grapple with gender. The
volume includes both classic and contemporary readings, drawn from
all branches of psychology-- social, developmental, personality,
cognitive, history, physiological/biological--as well as from other
disciplines, including sociology, philosophy, and anthropology.
The essays cover a gamut of subjects including epistemological
issues, the study of difference, the embodiment of gender, autonomy
and connection in relationships, and clinical implications. A
concluding chapter by the editors considers themes that can be
traced through the different sections, gaps in current
perspectives, and future directions.
The Gender and Psychology Reader includes contributions from an
array of distinguished scholars from varying methodological and
disciplinary backgrounds. Among the contributors are Laurel
Furumoto, Jeanne Marecek, Laura S. Brown, Anne Fausto- Sterling,
Sandra Lipsitz Bem, Michelle Fine, Jospeh H. Pleck, J. G. Morawski,
Daniel A. Hart, Barrie Thorne, and Aida Hurtado. Organized for easy
use as either a primary or supplementary text for upper-level
undergraduate and graduate courses in psychology, The Gender and
Psychology Reader will also serve as the essential reference for
those in clinical practice interested in gender issues.
