This text brings together in a single volume, a broad sampling of research and theory applying a feminist perspective to the study of psychology. The editors have assembled a distinguished roster of contributors to address such topics as historical and scientific foundations, social issues and problems, relationships and sexuality, and psychological and health issues from a social constructionist viewpoint. Discussions of diversity and development are integrated into each chapter.

Pre-publication praise: '[A]n excellent book with chapters presented by outstanding psychologists who have expertise in the various topics covered in the text. This book will be useful for both graduate and advanced undergraduate students; it is both informative and well written. The issues presented here will serve as a touchstone for students and instructors to have thoughtful discussions and explore their own feelings and attitudes. I look forward to using it in my own graduate course on women and gender. Kudos to the editors for such an outstanding book.' Florence L. Denmark, Pace University
