Gender on Ice American Ideologies of Polar Expeditions

'In this book, Bloom takes what might seem a very localized subject and shows how it opens up to all the central questions today in cultural studies around gender, nationhood, the politics of imperialism, race, male homosocial behavior, and the sociality of science. Gender on Ice has an eloquence and elegance that positively refreshing and the prose is stylish, engaging, and direct.' -Dana Polan, University of PittsburghBloom, Lisa is the author of 'Gender on Ice American Ideologies of Polar Expeditions' with ISBN 9780816620913 and ISBN 0816620911.
