Abstract
Gender is a key dimension of personal life, social relations and culture. It is an arena in which we face hard practical issues about justice, identity and even survival. Gender is also a topic on which there is a great deal of prejudice, myth and outright falsehood. Research and theory in the human sciences provide vital tools for understanding the real issues. This book tries to present an accessible, research-based, globally informed and theoretically coherent account of gender.
