A Woman's Guide to Doctoral Studies
Endorsements from Research Students:'I read it cover-to-cover in one sitting - it was really gripping stuff and I couldn't put it down! I think you've got the mode of address exactly right, and immeasurably more so than what's already on the market. I like the academic feel of it, as it implies you think your readers are intelligent adults, capable of understanding complex issues and wanting to make informed, considered decisions...''Thanks for your input.. about...PhD assessment/vivas.

Families

Familiar Exploitation
This important new book creates new terms for thinking about gender and generational relationships. In so doing it recasts conventional understandings of the family as an institution for organizing labour and consumption. Delphy and Leonard present their wide-ranging theoretical discussion alongside a comparative study of the family in urban and rural areas. Theoretical innovation is consistently matched by empirical analysis of the family in diverse settings.
Sex In Question
First published in 1996. Since the publication of Simone de Beauvoir's "The Second Sex", French feminist thought has informed and shaped the on-going debates in the English-speaking world. This book introduces English speakers to the work of a major group of French feminists - those de Beauvoir herself supported.
Close to Home
Close to Home is the classic study of family, patriarchal ideologies, and the politics and strategy of women's liberation. On the table in this forceful and provocative debate are questions of whether men can be feminists, whether "bourgeois" and heterosexual women are retrogressive members of the women's movement, and how best to struggle against the multiple oppressions women endure. Rachel Hills's foreword to this new edition explores how Christine Delphy's analysis of marriage as the institution behind the exploitation of unpaid women's labor is as radical and relevant today as it ever was.

Sexual Divisions Revisited
A selection of papers from the volumes "Sexual Divisions and Society" and "Exploitation in Work and Marriage" produced almost a decade ago at a conference in Aberdeen.
Sex in Question
Twenty-nine collected essays represent a critical history of Shakespeare's play as text and as theater, beginning with Samuel Johnson in 1765, and ending with a review of the Royal Shakespeare Company production in 1991. The criticism centers on three aspects of the play: the love/friendship debate.
Sexual Divisions and Society
Originally published in 1976, Sexual Divisions and Society argues that mainstream sociology has neglected to incorporate the notion of sexual divisions as an integral part of its theoretical underpinnings. It suggests that sociology has often included women completely within the term of ‘men’, or as a part of their husbands, rather than asking how and when the relationship between the sexes is pertinent to the explanation of social structure and behaviour. The volume is composed of papers brought together from the 1974 British Sociological Association Conference on Sexual Divisions.
