Designed for undergraduate courses in kinship, gender, or the two combined, Linda Stones Kinship and Gender is the product of years of teaching. The topic of kinship comes alive when linked to gender issues; conversely, the crosscultural study of gender benefits from a workingknowledge of kinship. This essential book successfully merges these two disciplines, demonstrating their relevance to students lives and enhancing students understanding of other cultures. Fourteen case studies throughout the book illuminate the intricate connections between kinship and gender across a variety of cultural groups. The fourth edition features a new chapter that reveals how kinship structures and related gender roles underlie many current social problems around the world. Also new to this edition are two original case studies, discussion questions, and listings of useful websites to aid further research.

I enjoyed some sections of this book, but I felt like it could have explored certain topics more deeply. The ideas are there, but they felt a bit surface-level in places. Still, it’s a decent introduction to kinship and gender. Worth checking out if you’re new to the subject.

Engaging and Informative
I found this book to be very engaging! The author has a knack for making complex ideas about kinship and gender understandable. I appreciated the case studies included, they added a lot to the content. Worth every penny for anyone interested in these topics!

Not What I Expected
I was looking for something more academic, so I was a bit disappointed. It’s more of an introductory text than a thorough analysis. The writing style is accessible, though, so it’s good for beginners. Just didn’t meet my needs as a graduate student.

A Thought-Provoking Read
This book really opened my eyes to the complexities of kinship and gender roles. The way the author explains different cultures' views is fascinating. I found myself reflecting on my own experiences while reading. Definitely recommend it for anyone interested in sociology!
