This significant reader brings together for the first time the most important essays concerning the intersecting subjects of gender, space and architecture. Carefully structured and with numerous introductory essays, it guides the reader through theoretical and multi-disciplinary texts to direct considerations of gender in relation to particular architectural sites, projects and ideas. This collection marks a seminal point in gender and architecture, both summarizing core debates and pointing toward new directions and discussions for the future.
'This volume will be a reference point equally for those who have prior knowledge of the territory and for the first-time student...The essays are supplemented with an extensive bibliography providing an invaluable springboard for future research in this subject area; its comprehensiveness can only lead to the conclusion that the subject is alive and well and forming its own traditions.' The Journal of Architecture
'One of the most thorough and far-reaching compilations on this subject - and perhaps the most accessible.' - Journal of Architectural Education
