"The third edition of Gender Through the Prism of Difference adopts a global, transnational perspective on how race, class, and sexual diversity are central to the study of sex and gender. In contrast with other books in this area - which tend to focus on U.S. or European viewpoints - this book features many articles based on research done elsewhere throughout the world." "The editors introduce this wide-ranging collection with a provocative analytical introduction that sets the stage for understanding gender as a socially constructed experience. Featuring mostly new readings, the book covers timely subjects - such as gender and popular culture, Islam, and men and war - to help students make a connection between the issues raised in the book and current events."--BOOK JACKET
