"The Psychology of Women and Gender: Half the Human Experience" delivers an authoritative analysis of classical and up-to-the-minute research from a feminist, psychological viewpoint. Authors Nicole M. Else-Quest and Janet Shibley Hyde examine the cultural and biological similarities and differences between genders, nothing how they are often a result of inequality. The "Ninth Edition" emphasizes rigorous methodology, reviewing and evaluating empirical evidence, and helps to demystify this field's scientific process. Hands-on applications through case studies that integrate research from other disciplines give students further experiences with key issues. This proven resource equips students with a strong foundation for understanding the dynamic influences of gender, sexual orientation, and ethnicity in the context of psychology and society, along with strategies for thinking critically about popular culture and using psychological science to improve people's lives and promote gender equality. -- From publisher's description.
