Thorough yet concise, #Gender: An Introduction to Gendered Social Problems provides timely, accessible, real-world cases of gendered social issues so that students can easily see the impact gender has on their lives. The textbook opens with the definition of gender and offers students a sociological framework to build upon. Current events such as the Roe v Wade reversal, Don’t Say Gay, and hormone testing for athletes provide up to date examples of gendered social issues while “Moving Forward” sections highlight the efforts that activists and everyday people are making to offer solutions for current issues. The book closes with a discussion on social change. Perfect for undergraduate students learning how gender informs their individual lives and wider societal structures.
