description: "Highly recommended for all libraries. All levels...this excellent index is a much needed service to anyone interested in research on women...well-organized and easy to use [with a] useful system of cross-references..." CHOICE, April 1995"feminist educators and scholars, who need all the tools they can lay their hands on, will appreciate this work."--Library Journal, October 1994"significantly improves access to womens studies scholarships."--Wilson Library Bulletin, November 1994."fills this [interdisciplinary] research gap in all respects...The coverage of books published outside the United States is especially welcome"--Feminist Collections, Fall 1994 Womens studies scholars and librarians have long been keenly aware that much original writing and research about women is published in anthologies and collections not just in scholarly journals. From the beginning of womens studies, anthologies have provided a critical vehicle for the publication of significant and original work in the field. This wealth of information, however, has been virtually inaccessible in periodical indexes or library catalogs. The two-volume Index covers approximately 1,200 anthologies published between 1980 and 1989, including collected essays, proceedings, and primary research across all subject disciplines, with a primary focus on women or feminist issues. The Index is composed of five parts: Anthologies and Tables of Contents, Subject Index (within 36 broad categories), Editor Index, Author Index, and Keyword Index (for chapter titles). It allows researchers to identify book chapters by individual womens studies scholars, and the Subject Index serves to describe major areas of research in womens studies. Set of 2 volumes
