Contemporary Feminism with a Realist Twist

The articles in this collection absolutely blew my mind. This book contains a comprehensive collection of both theorists and practitioners who work in the gender field, writing on topics ranging from semantics to masculinities. If you have an interest in gender as a social construct, this book is for you. I would suggest this selection to anyone in the gender, masculinities, or feminist theory fields. Excellent!
