Industry Reviews

"This edited collection of essays, published to mark the 20th anniversary of the journal Gender and History, is a welcome and timely reminder of the way in which gender and women's history has successfully challenged historical orthodoxies . . .This book presents an at times quite staggering breath of historical coverage and debate bringing to light new and diverse histories of women and demanding that historians of women and gender don't become complacent." (Shepard's Gender and Change, 14 October 2010)
