Book excerpt: Women's Minds/Women's Bodies: The Psychology of Women in a Biosocial Context by Joan H. Rollins is a scholarly yet intriguingly readable new book that integrates pertinent material from psychology, sociology, biology, economics, and political science to the psychology of women within a feminist empiricist framework. Comprehensive and interdisciplinary, Women's Minds/Women's Bodies provides a balanced presentation of the broad spectrum of theory and research in the subject area no matter how controversial. Treated holistically, the subject matter illustrates how the topics presented have relevance and meaning for the challenges women face in today's world while experiential accounts of individual women throughout the book are used to complete and humanize the picture painted by quantitative data.
