The Impact of Feminist Research in the Academy

Couverture
Christie Farnham
Indiana University Press, 22 déc. 1987

"... comprehensive, well-written, and useful... A must... " -- Choice

"... interdisciplinary... with exciting contributions from the humanities and the social and natural sciences." -- Quest

"... a treasure of rich and challenging scholarship that covers many fields... " -- Religious Education

"The helpful insights from a wide range of disciplines -- Economics to Literature -- accumulated here in a focused manner should be useful to all scholars interested in Women's Studies." -- Kathryn Allen Rabuzzi, Syracuse University, Religious Studies Review

"... exciting, state-of-the-art essays across a wide variety of fields." -- Gender & Society

Nationally recognized scholars assess the impact of over a decade of research on women. Originally intended merely as a corrective -- filling in a missing part of the story -- the cumulative effect of this body of scholarship is to pose paradigm shifts for the traditional disciplines.

Fréquemment cités

Page 2 - In every known human society, the male's need for achievement can be recognized. Men may cook, or weave or dress dolls or hunt humming-birds, but if such activities are appropriate occupations of men, then the whole society, men and women alike, votes them as important. When the same occupations are performed by women, they are regarded as less important.‎
