MSUM Library
honors the 2007 promotion of
Dr. Deborah White
Sociology and Criminal Justice
Seidman, Steven, editor. Queer Theory/Sociology. Blackwell Press, 1996.
Dr. White chose this book because:
“Seidman’s compilation of essays deconstructs the heterosexual/homosexual binary and denaturalizes deeply held views of sexuality. The authors exemplify sociology at its best. They provide new perspectives on taken-for-granted beliefs and link the experiences of the individual with an historical, cultural, and perhaps most importantly, political context.”
