Abstract

Analysing Gender in Performance is a practical textbook organised in occasionally overlapping chapters under different content tables, which provide an interdisciplinary and intersectional quality to the book. Both content and form offered by the internal organisation of the book provide quick and accurate retrieval of information for a wide range of readers from different research fields, catering to their different needs. The reader is then given the opportunity to craft their own path and make particular connections between the essays, which point to different directions but intersect in potentially interesting ways.
