Praeger Guide to the Psychology of Gender
When we examine the field of gender psychology closely, we note that much of what the popular media tells us about women and men does not hold up to research scrutiny. This handbook helps to replace media stereotypes and myths with realities and shows us that there are more similarities between the sexes than differences. The contributors to this handbook have a highly practical and readable approach that will prompt readers to examine their self-awareness and social tolerance to biases against women and men in our social institutions such as schools and workplaces. They also reveal that the increased participation in courses and reading of literature on gender has improved gender role attitudes and behavior, causing both sexes to treat each other with more respect and dignity. The contributors to this volume focus on gender role development and multicultural issues throughout the lifecyle. They also emphasize the empowerment of both sexes. The gender-related topics in this handbook include: Teacher socialization of girls and boys; Women's and men's verbal and nonverbal communication skills; Women's and men's voting patterns; Sexual violence; The gender wage gap; Women's and men's friendships and sexual relationships; Parents' communication of masculinity and femininity to their children.

Volume one provides an overview of workplace discrimination through an examination of federally protected categories, such as age, disability, equal compensation, national origin, pregnancy, race/color, religion, sex, and sexual harassment. Volume two offers strategies related to \"reasonable care\" in terms of preventing workplace discrimination through policies, procedures, and training programs.

النسوية وحقوق المرأة حول العالم
النسوية وحقوق المرأة حول العالم توضح المؤلفة ميشيل أ. بالودي فى مقدمة الكتاب أن هناك عددا كبيرا من المواقف التى ترمى باللوم على المرأة فى كافة الأحوال والظروف، فدائما ما تبقى النظرة الذكورية هى المسيطرة، وتستطرد لأن عمل المرأة لا ينجز أبدا ويدفع له أقل مما يستحقه أو لا يدفع له أصلا، أو أنه ممل أو مضجر، وأننا أول ما يطرد، وما نبدو عليه أهم مما نفعله، وإذا ضربنا فلا بد أننا استحققنا ذلك، ولو دافعنا عن حقوقنا فإننا عدوانيات و\"غير أنثويات\" وإن لم نفعل فإننا مثال للإناث الضعيفات، ولو أردنا الزواج فإننا خارجات لاقتناص رجل، وإن لم نفعل فإننا غير سويات.. وغيرها من المواقف التى تنظر للمرأة نظرة دونية فى كل الأحوال.
