Thinking About Sexual Harassment aims to provide the information necessary for careful, critical thinking about the concept of sexual harassment. Part I traces the construction of the concept of sexual harassment from the first public uses of the term through its definitions in the law, in legal cases, and in empirical research. Part II analyses philosophical definitions of sexual harassment and a number of issues that have arisen in the law, including the reasonable woman standard and whether same-sex harassment should be considered sex discrimination.

Reviews
A definitive work... Crouch admirably accomplishes her purpose of clarifying the numerous controversial issues and conflicting perspectives that still plague the subject of sexual harrassment... She provides a well-versed and comprehensive examination of the topic from several different disciplinary perspectives. Although the issues are complex and Crouch's treatment subtle and sophisticated, her logic and prose are straightforward and graspable by undergraduate and lay readers who, along with experts in the field, will learn much from her exercise in clear analysis. Highly recommended at all levels. * Choice *
