Book Description
This is the newest title in the renowned G.K. Hall "Bibliographic Guide "Series. The subject area is one in which G.K. Hall has published widely, including the ongoing "Women's Studies Index. " The Research Library of the New York Public Library is one of the most important resource centers for Women's Studies in the United States. Every effort is made to collect a broad range of publications reflecting new trends and thought on feminist theory and scholarship. New York Public Library holdings document the progress of the women's movement in this country from its beginnings and include manuscript materials as well as books, pamphlets, newsletters and periodicals. Materials are available on many women instrumental to the early movement: Susan B. Anthony, Jane Addams, and Catherine Beecher, to name a few. Farsighted librarians sought to collect both primary and secondary sources relating to women long before the field became recognized as a scholarly pursuit. Within its collecting conspectus, the Library seeks to acquire materials that are diverse in nature, global in provenance and multicultural in content. Documentary evidence on women in the Library may be found in many forms: letters: diaries; books; periodicals; microform; government, legal, and organizational documents; artwork; music; pamphlets; maps; photographs; oral histories; postcards; videotapes; CD-ROMs; scrapbooks; patents; and more.

Book Description
A jargon-free, non-technical, and easily accessible introduction to women's studies! All too many students enter academia with the hazy idea that the field of women's studies is restricted to housework, birth control, and Susan B. Anthony. Their first encounter with a women's studies textbook is likely to focus on the history and sociology of women's lives. While these topics are important, the emphasis on them has led to neglect of equally important issues. Transforming the Disciplines: A Women's Studies Primer is one of the first women's studies textbooks to show feminist scholarship as an active force, changing the way we study such diverse fields as architecture, bioethics, history, mathematics, religion, and sports studies. Although this text was designed as an introduction to women's studies, it is also rewarding for upper-level or graduate students who want to understand the pervasive effects of feminist theory. Most chapters provide a bibliography or list of further reading of significant works. Its clear, jargon-free prose makes feminist thought accessible to general readers without sacrificing the revolutionary power of its ideas. In almost thirty essays, covering a broad range of subjects from anthropology to chemistry to rhetoric, Transforming the Disciplines exemplifies the changes achieved by feminist thought. Transforming the Disciplines: combines a high standard of writing and scholarship with personal insight includes both traditional academic arguments and alternative, non-agonistic forms of discussion embraces an international scope challenges traditional assumptions, models, and methodologies offers an inter- and multidisciplinary approach strengthens readers’understanding of the big picture not only for women but for all disempowered groups critiques feminism as well as patriarchal society Feminist theory is grounded in a questioning of traditional assumptions about what is right, natural, and self-evident, not just about the roles and nature of men and women but about how we think, what we teach, whose experience matters, and what is important. Transforming the Disciplines is the first textbook to show the consequences of those questions -- not the answers themselves, but the consequences of the willingness to ask and the transformations that have occurred when the “right” answers changed.

Book Description
From Beijing to Seattle, women's movements within academe and in local-global communities are growing at an unprecedented rate, raising pointed questions about paradigms of Western feminism, development, global trade, and scholarship. Despite this growing visibility, the perspectives of far too many women, especially from the Global South, are still excluded from mainstream U.S. scholarship. Presented with the task of preparing students for life in this new and rapidly shrinking world, many scholars have found themselves overwhelmed by the need to cross disciplinary and geographic borders. But some faculty are leading the way -- often in defiance of academic traditions and prejudices -- to a curriculum that reflects consequences of globalization. Encompassing Gender is the long-awaited anthology of more than 40 essays by 60 scholars, many of them working in curriculum-transformation groups that cut across the humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences, all of them committed to an interdisciplinary approach to internationalizing the curriculum.
