Summary
The essays in this book are grouped under four heads. In "The Articulation of Gender as an Analytic Category," the authors analyze the different approaches to scholarship on women in anthropology and history. Research strategies are examined under "Methodological Moves from Margin to Center." One author proposes a model of eros and empathy to replace the false dualism of objective and subjective types of research, while another demonstrates the problems raised when females are omitted from the mapping of human development. In "The Sticking Power of Stereotypes," a group of authors trace the impact of conventional stereotypes of women on their respective disciplines. Finally, the section on "Paradigmatic Implications" explores the notion of paradigm shifts. ISBN 0-253-32807-1: $27.50.
