'An exceptionally readable and usable survey of the major developments in queer theory over the last two decadesHall is witty and engaging as he takes us on a whirlwind tour of the major sites of contention and debate in the histories of sexuality, embodiment, desire and sexual subjectivities...It is never easy to hold onto the complexity of critical theory while making it accessible to undergraduates or non-academic readers; but Hall has been extremely successful in offering cogent and smart readings of key texts without underestimating the ambition and sophistication of his readers.' - Professor Judith Halberstam, University of California, San Diego 'Lucid, readable and engaging account of queer theories, showing how they have developed and changed rapidly over recent years.' - Dr Lawrence Normand, Middlesex University 'Production values are excellent - overview of queer theory 'as a discipline' was lively and interesting - I especially enjoyed the 'practical application' in terms of the literary readings.' - Dr Katherine O'Donnell, University College Dublin '...a succinct, pedagogically designed, introduction...this book should generate lively class discussions and projects...' - D.N.
