Women and Gender Transforming Psych: Transforming Psychology - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Well-grounded in research, this accessible book presents psychology as it has been transformed -- and is being transformed -- by the inclusion of women in the discipline. It discusses the changes that a feminist vision of psychology has made in everything from the methods used to the topics being studied, until ultimately, the readers' views of psychology and themselves are transformed. Chapter topics cover feminist transformations of psychology; the intersection of sex, gender, and sexuality; women's lives from adolescence through old age; gender comparisons; sexism: sexist prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination; women's multiple roles; women's physical health, mental health, male violence against girls and women; and making a difference: transforming ourselves, our relationships, and our society.
