Natural Women, Cultured Men: A Feminist Perspective on Sociological Theory (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780814779972)

Published for the first time in paperback, Rosalind Sydie's critically acclaimed study examines the work and thought of Durkheim, Weber, Marx, Engels, focusing on what these influential thinkers had to say about the nature of gender relationships. She brings to light assumptions at the foundation of classical social theory, and the effect that these assumptions have had on the perception of women.
