Comprising the most current scholarship from leading experts in the 
fields of gender and media studies, Gendered Transformations offers 
readers a new foundation from which to re-examine traditional 
perspectives on gender. Organized into sections concerning 
representational politics, embodied performance, and social 
constructions of reality, these essays explore a wide variety of 
concerns from a similarly wide variety of perspectives, from 
essentialist to anti-essentialist. A thought-provoking contribution 
to a number of disparate fields, Gendered Transformations offers a 
rare interdisciplinary approach to gender that reflects the most 
recent developments in media theory and methodology.

The ECREA Book Series aims to offer a structural publication 
opportunity for ECREA members, as (according to our publication 
guidelines) at least half of the authors and one of the editors needs 
to be an ECREA member. So far this approach has worked well, as is 
evidenced not only by this publication, but also by the entire series
