Recenzje

"The authors explore current debates, implications for psychology and the world, and potential directions for future research. Important points are highlighted for students, academics, and applied professionals. ... The book's organized and accessible presentation makes it an efficient and highly usable reference. ... I also appreciate the authors' candor in identifying certain issues and identities that are largely invisible in existing psychological research. This would be a strong purchase for any library." (Karla J. Strand, Resources for Gender and Women's Studies: A Feminist Review, Vol. 39 (1), 2018)

"The Palgrave Handbook of the Psychology of Sexuality and Gender ... provides a lucid and comprehensive overview of gender and sexuality from a psychological perspective. ... The result is a collection that is comprehensive, cohesive, and highly informative. I recommend it for individuals who want to get up-to-date on gender and sexuality, as well as for graduate or advanced undergraduate courses on these topics." (Eileen L. Zurbriggen, Sex Roles, Vol. 76, 2017)
