Reviews

. . . [The] value of the book lies very much in the broad sweep with which it tries to recast our understanding of masculine domination. . . . [It] opens up the field for an investigation of the gender order as an ongoing social project of both men and women. . . . Bourdieu's greatest contribution to the study of gender is not so much in the questions that he has answered, but rather in the questions he is allowing us to pose. -- Contemporary Sociology
