This encyclopedia covers the major theories, research, people, and issues in contemporary gender studies. This comprehensive, two-volume Encyclopedia is distinguished by cross-national and cross-cultural perspectives that provide comparative analyses of the life experiences of men and women around the world.
The five volumes of this encyclopedia represent more than a catalogue terms. They capture the spirit of the moment, a fascinating time when global warming and genetic engineering represent only two of the most obvious examples of socioenvironmental issues.
The first comprehensive resource on this important topic, this set covers the origins of homelessness, current research, and strategies for its prevention. The contributors represent such disciplines as sociology, anthropology, medicine, and social work. Articles address homelessness in eight major American cities and more than 30 cities and nations around the world.
