3.0 out of 5 stars blah, February 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
If you need this for a class but want an older edition, go for it. Almost all the research is 30+ years old. Also, I'm all for women empowerment, but this book is definately biased and makes the research conclusions unreliable. There are better options out there.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book, October 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
It's interesting and easy to read. I bought the book for a class, and so far, I have learned a lot from it. I can easily understand a whole chapter without having to re-read anything in it.

This review is from: Sex & Gender: An Introduction (Paperback)
The book came quickly and in good order. It was cheap enough that I didn't have to spend a ton of money on books this semester.
