About the list

The whole of our Sociology and Gender studies lists reveal the sense of debate which is so central to the subject areas. Core introductory textbooks, such as Introductory Sociology by Tony Bilton et al. and Global Sociology by Robin Cohen and Paul Kennedy offer the thorough grounding with which to access the broad range of research works in the list. Introducing Women's Studies offers a similarly solid foundation from which to explore the rest of our healthy Gender Studies list.

 

News

Palgrave Macmillan and The London School of Economics and Political Science announce agreement to publish BioSocieties , an interdisciplinary journal for the social studies of life sciences.
