An instant best-seller and now the leading book for the course, Wade and Ferree's Gender is an accessible and inclusive introduction to sociological perspectives on gender. Drawing on memorable examples mined from history, pop culture, and current events, Gender deftly moves between theoretical concepts and applications to everyday life. Revised throughout to be more inclusive and intersectional, the Third Edition features expanded coverage of the nonbinary and trans experience and new discussions of the impact of Covid-19 on families and work.
