Questioning Gender: A Sociological Exploration

By Robyn Ryle, Robyn R. (Rae) Ryle, Robyn R Ryle

Book Overview

A one-of-a-kind text designed to launch readers into a thoughtful encounter with gender issues.

Questioning Gender: A Sociological Exploration, Third Edition serves as a point-of-departure for productive conversations about gender, and as a resource for exploring answers to many of those questions. Rather than providing definitive answers, this unique book exposes readers to some of the best scholarship in the field that will lead them to question many of their assumptions about what is normal and abnormal. The author uses both historical and cross-cultural approaches--as well as a focus on intersectionality and transgender issues--to help students understand the socially constructed nature of gender.
