Women and Psychology introduces students to the myriad challenges facing women today as well as the psychological effects these challenges can perpetuate. The anthology outlines key issues both within the United States and abroad to provide readers with a global overview of select female experiences. The collection provides valuable insight into behaviors and practices that cultivate gender discrimination, pulls back the curtain on topics rarely explored by the general public, and empowers students to stand up for justice for women.
The text begins with chapters that explore the history of women at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the identity economics of female genital mutilation. Additional chapters address the psychological costs of terminating a pregnancy; endometriosis; and historical ideas and beliefs surrounding conception, pregnancy, and childbirth. Students read articles on human trafficking, violence against women, and the balance of women and work. The anthology closes with a reading about the importance of feminism in contemporary society.
The second edition features new readings on the topics of sex differences and communication, pregnancy and childbirth, the emotional glass ceiling for boys, sexual violence against college women, and engaging men in anti-violence campaigns.
Meant to serve as a supplementary text, Women and Psychology is well-suited for any course that explores the intersection of women and psychology.
