Sociology of Sexualities by Kathleen J Fitzgerald

Sociology of Sexualities by Kathleen J Fitzgerald

Sociology of Sexualities takes a unique sociological approach to the study of sexualities and explores the ways sexuality operates in and through institutions. Drawing on the most up-to-date scientific research on sexuality, as well as the latest political developments on the issues, this core text helps students connect knowledge about sexuality with their broader understanding of society. The thoroughly revised Second Edition includes updated and expanded discussions of the latest sociological research and social justice movements regarding gender and sexuality, as well as a new chapter exploring sexuality and social class, space, and place. Included with this title: The password-protected Instructor Resource Site (formally known as SAGE Edge) offers access to all text-specific resources, including a test bank.

"[Sociology of Sexualities] has a strong intersectional focus, strong connections to contemporary social events and research, and clear and accessible writing" -- Rachel Schmitz
"This book has a nice balance with regard to micro and macro level examples, data, and theories." -- Kassia Wosick
