Ceci n’est pas un livre sur le genre
(This is not a book about gender) Book not yet available in English
Summary:
This is not a book about gender, nor is it a book ‘about gender’ in the usual sense, i.e. one that only concerns sexual and gender minorities. Instead, this book explores how gender shapes society as a whole, drawing on history, science and sociology, while equipping readers to highlight its omnipresence and combat stereotypes and inequalities.
Edited by: Université Sorbonne Paris Nord
Comment:
The author offers a systemic and intersectional perspective on the broad concept of gender, drawing on the entire field of social sciences and successfully explaining its concepts in a way that is accessible to all. With numerous case studies and practical exercises, he also encourages his readers to engage in reflection and provides them with tools to take a critical look at society. The book is not specifically aimed at teenagers and can be challenging at times, but it is a comprehensive and valuable resource on the subject.
