More DescriptionThis book provides full and accurate descriptions of terms commonly used in geographical debates about gender relations. It does not confine itself to short definitions but allows sufficient space to develop an adequate sense of the complexity of the terms covered. Explicitly aimed at geographers, it includes key concepts and theoretical terms with four levels of entry, from approximately 1500 words for the most important terms, to 50 words for the least significant. Also included is a comprehensive bibliography encouraging readers to seek out seminal texts and reach their own conclusions. This comprehensive book will be an invaluable reference for all undergraduate students studying geography and gender, enabling them to approach the terminology of feminist theory and ideas with confidence.
