Book excerpt: Offering a clear, comprehensive presentation, HALF THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE, 8E delivers an authoritative analysis of classical and the most current research from a feminist psychology viewpoint. It thoroughly examines the balance of cultural and biological similarities--and differences--between the genders, noting how these characteristics may affect issues of equality as well as how men and women behave toward one another. It provides a strong foundation for understanding the influences of gender, race, and ethnicity on psychology and society, as well as strategies for thinking critically about pop culture versus academic feminism as it relates to psychology.
