Review:
"Feminist researchers describe the process, its connections, and its range of approaches - many of which have resulted in cutting - edge breakthroughs in the research community. Issues of race, class, geography, and more are surveyed in chapters that cover such research around the world, while future trends are analyzed. College-level libraries strong in women′s studies or social science can′t afford to be without this in-depth set of articles for students and scholars at the graduate level." -- Midwest Book Review, California Bookwatch Published On: 2007-02-12
"This comprehensive edited volume is an important contribution to feminist scholarship. It integrates a wide range of theoretical, empirical, and practical material to provide an interdisciplinary review of classic and contemporary feminist theory, as well as an invaluable guide to help scholars construct their own research agendas. Among the volume′s most significant contributions is the successful explanation of what makes research "feminist" through the use of inclusive definitions and emphasis on both the synergies and tensions in the relationships between feminist activism and scholarship. Very useful as a reference for students or as a text in research methods. Highly recommended." -- R. V. Kutz-Flamenbaum Published On: 2007-03-20
