a femenist perspective, but superlative work

The problem with sociology of gender is that the work seems to be dominated by a femenist perspective, instead of a value nuetral perspective. However, the field of gender sociology has been covered more assiduously (and thus remains more valid and relevant)then many other fields of sociology. Otherwise, this is a fantastic book. The authors Dubeck and Dunn use a vast amount of resources to create a highly valid book that adresses gender and race inequality (from a female perspective). The first edition is really not too much different from the 2nd, but the articles are on different pages. The purpose of this second edition (like most updates) is to get more money from college students.
