This book challenges readers to explore gender from varied perspectives within a sociological context. Student's awareness of gender issues is heightened through the examination of key questions, for example: how is equality defined?, have women achieved equality?, are gender differences rooted in biology?. This book is structured to follow the development and history of the women's movement in Canada. By examining the major theories and issues associated with each period, readers will appreciate how improvements to the status of women have not been the result of a natural and inevitable progression of humanity, but rather the result of long-term struggles that continue today.
