Reviews

“This book is choc-full of great data and represents a timely contribution to political science. Steel’s voice is hip, and especially well-suited for the newcomer to politics seeking a solid introduction to the intersection of gender and electoral politics across three distinct democracies. Experts alike will benefit from Steel’s comparative analysis.”- Dyron Dabney, Earlham College “This well-researched, well-written book draws on an impressive variety of evidence to make an important contribution to our understanding of the ‘gender gap’ in voting. This book has much to teach readers about the relationship between gender and forces like class, symbolic politics, the media, and political campaigns.”- Michael Strausz, Texas Christian University
