Reviews

<p> Full of insights . . . an important contribution . . . written in accessible prose and ideal for course use. <br>- Women's Review of Books ,


aA classic. Fraternity Gang Rape is a fascinating analysis of how all-male groups such as fraternities or athletic teams may create a rape culture where behavior occurs that few individuals acting alone would perpetrate. The new introduction and afterword shed light on how this pernicious problem continues today, insightfully illuminating the complicity of society in the failure of accountability for acquaintance rape. - Mary P. Koss, co-editor of No Safe Haven: Male Violence Against Women at Home, at Work, and in the Community


<p> Powerfully moving and analytically provocative. . . . If the college or university at which AJS readers teach has a fraternity or sorority system, this book will be useful in understanding the way those organizations not only construct the gender relations between women and men on campus but also provide a map of male domination that members can take with them for the rest of their lives. <br>
