The Gender of Psychology is a South African-based textbook looking at the relationship between gender and psychology. Psychology as a discipline has historically been criticised for perpetuating sexism, reproducing gender inequality and neglecting women’s and other marginalised perspectives. There has been an increasing attempt internationally to provide a critical gender analysis of the discipline and practice, and to theorise the contributions that psychology may indeed make to addressing such issues.
SUITABLE FOR
Gender studies students, academics, researchers and policy makers.
