It addresses issues of central concern to feminists, postmodernists, and queer theorists and encourages different insights into how gender profoundly affects us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The Family Silver is carefully and beautifully written. A mark of Krieger's style is that she announces themes subtly, without the fanfare that social scientific writers usually adopt. . . . Whether or not one agrees with Krieger, one can appreciate her clear, direct prose and her insistence that we think again about the worlds we inhabit.\" * Gender and Society *\u003cbr\u003e\"Difficult and complex issues are presented in a naked fashion. Stripped of the cloak of academic jargon, these essays are honest, vulnerable, and apt to induce an emotional response in readers. Krieger writes in a straightforward manner making her biases and perspectives clear. Not all readers will agree with her, but they are likely to question conceptions of gender and its influence in their lives, personally and professionally. If Krieger's hope is realized, the book will also encourage other women to tell their stories.\" * Journal of Higher Education *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePREFACE\u003cbr\u003e INTRODUCTION\u003cbr\u003e Part One\u003cbr\u003e Personal Settings\u003cbr\u003e ONE: GENDER ROLES AMONG WOMEN\u003cbr\u003e TWO: BECOMING A LESBIAN\u003cbr\u003e THREE: THE FAMILY SILVER\u003cbr\u003e FOUR: THE PASSING DOWN OF SORROW\u003cbr\u003e Part Two\u003cbr\u003e Academic Settings\u003cbr\u003e FIVE: HURTS OF THE SYSTEM\u003cbr\u003e SIX: SAYING NO TO A MAN\u003cbr\u003e SEVEN: LESBIAN IN ACADEME\u003cbr\u003e Part Three\u003cbr\u003e Feminist Teaching\u003cbr\u003e EIGHT: A FEMINIST CLASS\u003cbr\u003e NINE: SEPARATISM\u003cbr\u003e TEN: DESIRES FOR AN IDEAL COMMUNITY OF WOMEN\u003cbr\u003e NOTES","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359043322199,"sku":"9780520203112","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780520203112.jpg?v=1754123346","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-family-silver-essays-on-relationships-among-women-9780520203112","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
