This book investigates the mappings of ideas about sexual and ethnic difference in Galilee during the centuries following the last Jewish revolt against the Roman Empire.

Trade Review
"The final result is a complex, fluid and more satisfying picture of space and gender where the answer to the leading question 'where are the women?' can be confidently answered by 'everywhere'." * Journal for the Study of the Old Testament *
"This beautifully written and sharply insightful volume offers a reconsideration of the dynamics of households, domesticity, and communal space in late ancient Judaism....Baker's contribution to the study of ancient Jewish culture in signficant in both its substance and its method." -- Shofar
