"I have waited years for a simple, student-accessible theory book . . . the feminist oriented literature has become so sophisticated, involuted (or should I say poorly written), and dominated by post-colonial critique, that it totally alienates my students. This, at last, presents us with a comprehensive overview of analytic and theoretical approaches in the anthropology of gender studies that is easy for students to read and critique." -- Dona Davis, University of South Dakota
". . . an exceptionally clear introduction to the topic." -- Leland Searles, University of Minnesota
"I found this volume to be an excellent, concise overview . . . the authors identify historical events, intellectual trends, and political issues that have shaped research and theory on gender in anthropology." -- Jean N. Scandlyn, University of Colorado, Denver
". . . a much-needed approach in teaching of gender issues and perspectives." -- Lioba Moshi, University of Georgia
