Handbook For Achieving Sex Equity Through Education

"Susan Klein, editor of the Handbook for Achieving Sex Equity through Education and the fifty contributing authors, believe that 'sex equity goals can be at least partially achieved through education.' The Handbook is based on the premise that education is both the medium and the message: educators will use a variety of strategies to bring about sex equity and will also integrate sex equity materials into their courses and curricula... The comprehensive sweep of the Handbook distinguishes it from others in the field. There is something here for everyone, from early childhood teachers to professors of early childhood education, from government and school administrators working to promote equity to women and minorities trying to overcome institutional barriers, from scholars designing methodologies for sex equity research to instructors building sex equity methods and concepts into their content areas. Handbook for Achieving Sex Equity through Education deserves a prominent place -- one that is within reach -- on the bookshelf.."-- Women Today, February 22, 1985Klein, Susan S. is the author of 'Handbook For Achieving Sex Equity Through Education', published 1989 under ISBN 9780801838439 and ISBN 0801838436.
