      abstract = {"Gender and Culture in Psychology introduces readers to  new approaches to the psychological study of gender that  bring together feminist psychology, socio-cultural  psychology, discursive psychology and critical psychology.  It presents research and theory that embed human action in  social, cultural and interpersonal contexts. The book  provides conceptual tools for thinking about gender, social  categorization, human meaning and culture. It also  describes a family of interpretative research methods,  which focus on rich talk and everyday activities, and  provides a close-in view of how interpretative research  proceeds. The latter portion of the book showcases  innovative projects in the psychology of gender that  investigate topics of concern to scholars and feminist  activists: young teens' encounters with heterosexual norms;  male-female couples' negotiating the sharing of housework  and childcare; sexual coercion and violence in male-female  relationships; the cultural politics of women's weight and  eating concerns; psychiatric labelling of psychological  suffering; and feminism in psychotherapy"--},
