Gender Violence: Interdisciplinary Perspectives

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Book!! MUST READ
Review: This book is a must have for students of womyn's studies or anyone interested in gender violence. This compilation of articles is an excellent balanced look at gender violence through an interdisciplinary perspective. Violence against womyn is a extensive topic studied, but as the title indicates, gender violence is the theme of the book, therefore, violence targeted at men and womyn is discussed. Also the list of sources is quite extensive for further research. This is definitely one of the best books on gender violence out there!!

Summary: food for thought for either sex
Review: This book started out as required reading for me, but I ended up reading it from cover to cover in three days! I was impressed with it because it thoroughly covered all issues ever raised in women's issues, and offered many references for those of us interested in researching further. I especially liked the fact that it is a compilation of writings put together in a logical, dynamic way, each section feeding off the other. This book is a must-read for women, but also instrumental for men in their understanding of womens' experiences.
