While Most Of The Essays Were Specifically Written For This Volume, A Few Are Reprinted As A Testament To Their Enduring Value.Exploring The Central Role Of Gender As An Organizing Principle Of Chinese Social Life, Chinese Femininities/ Chinese Masculinities Is An Innovative Reader That Will Spark New Debate In A Wide Range Of Disciplines.
