The story surrounding the development of Women's and Gender Studies is often told through a U.S.-centric lens; but it is incomplete or, even misguided, without acknowledging the diversity of sites outside the U.S. that helped shape the field both within and outside of the academy. The Companion to Women's and Gender Studies attempts to correct some of the gaps and misrepresentations of the field, broadly defined, including attention to international, postcolonial, intersectional, and interdisciplinary insights from scholars in different parts of the world"-- Provided by publisherAuthorized Access PointCompanion to women's and gender studies
