"The goal here—to provide a guide and companion for students, researchers, and readers interested in gender studies—is strongly achieved. To gender enthusiasts: grab a copy, open to any page, and see what new idea you come across." (M/C Reviews, July 2009)

"This ambitious volume is an essential sourcebook in Gender Studies at all levels and the point de départ for future research. It transcends the boundaries of a quite remarkable range of traditional disciplines, highlighting the gender issues within each, directly and accessibly. Fascinating and illuminating! Recommended to all academic libraries.”
–H.G.A. Hughes, Reference Reviews

"After twenty years of discussions on the importance of combining poststructuralist anti-foundationalism with intellectual, political and ethical accountability, here is a volume that actually practices what it preaches. This is a very important and necessary collection that conveys a flair for theoretical complexity in a direct and accessible way. It succeeds in addressing gender issues within an impressive range of disciplines and a broad span of interdisciplinary areas. It drives home time and again the notion that gender today should function as a verb that connects multiple differences and not as an essential entity. Compulsory reading for us all."
–Rosi Braidotti, Utrecht University

"This Companion is a landmark text in establishing dialogues of critical race theory, postcolonialism, and globalization with studies on gender."
–Jeff Hearn, Swedish School of Economics and University of Huddersfield
