Summary
Inside the Academy and Out demonstrates that the pedagogical and theoretical insights offered by lesbian/gay/queer studies can have relevance to a broader social sphere. The essayists represented here come from a wide range of disciplines, including English, education, philosophy, sociology, and women's studies. Their essays are divided into two broad areas: 'Pedagogy and Research' and 'Spheres of Action.' Taken together, they explore teaching and research theory, examining their implications in areas such as AIDS education, social services, law reform, and popular culture.
