Synopsis

Gender is one of the most important topics in the field of sociology, and as a system of social practices it inspires a multitude of theoretical approaches. "The Sociology of Gender" offers an introductory overview of gender theory and research, offering a unique and compelling approach; treats gender as a multilevel system operating at the individual, interactional, and institutional levels; stresses conceptual and theoretical issues in the sociology of gender; offers an accessible yet intellectually sophisticated approach to current gender theory and research; and, includes pedagogical features designed to encourage critical thinking and debate. Closer Look readings at the end of each chapter give a unique perspective on chapter topics by presenting relevant articles by leading scholars.
