Purchase options and add-ons

A lively exploration of current questions of gender and their application to students today.

Wade and Ferree’s first edition textbook is a lively introduction to the sociology of gender. Probing questions, the same ones that students often bring to the course, frame readable chapters that are packed with the most up-to-date scholarship available―in language students will understand. The authors use memorable examples mined from pop culture, history, psychology, biology, and everyday life to truly engage students in the study of gender and spark interest in sociological perspectives.

I had to get this book for my college course. I would read ahead of our reading schedule. The book is very informative, and has a sense of humor, blunt, and very educating. I actually want to buy this book just to have it to re-read a couple of times. This book and class were my favorite out of my 5 classes I took this past semester. Even if you are not a student it is a good read.

I love this book. It was required for my Sociology of Gender course, but I would have bought and loved it anyway, it's so clear and specific with the content. If you are interested in conversations of gender and cultural norms at all, this is a perfect companion.
