Reviews
'Indispensable for feminist theory.' - Hypatia
'At times brilliant, always groundbreaking, Gender Trouble is bound to make some trouble of its own.' - Outweek
'The most authoritative attack to date on the "naturalness" of gender. This is a brilliant and innovative book.' - Sandra Lee Bartky
'Rereading this book, as well as reading it for the first time, reshapes the categories through which we experience and perform our lives and bodies. To be troubled in this way is an intellectual pleasure and a political necessity.' - Donna Haraway
