* Sexuality
* Ethnicity
* Social Class.

The specially written introduction by the editors contextualises the selection and introduces students to the main issues and current thinking in the field. Available in one easy-to-access place, this authoritative reference book provides a collection of articles that have lead the field. It should find a place in every library and on every departmental bookshelf.
