Summary

What is queer theory? What does it do? Is queer theory only for queers? This vibrant anthology of groundbreaking work by influential scholars, activists, performers, and visual artists is essential reading for anyone with an interest in sexuality studies. The fifteen articles - including two specially commissioned contributions, as well as an engaging introduction - map, contextualize, and challenge queer theory's project both within and beyond the academy. Summaries and suggestions for further reading make the volume an ideal course textbook.
