Purchase options and add-ons

Who are queers, and what do they want? Could it be that we are all queers? Beginning with such questions, this book traces the roots of queer theory, examining the growing awareness that few people precisely fit standard categories for sexual and gender identities.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I hold a Ph.D. in U.S. history and a J.D. A Genealogy of Queer Theory is my dissertation book. Another book for which I was one of three coeditors is Creating Change: Sexuality, Public Policy, and Civil Rights. My particular interests as a historian include LGBT history, women's history, intellectual/cultural history, the history of feminism and feminist theory, and the history of public policy, especially civil rights policy.

My new book, The GOP Will Not Govern, describes how Republicans seek high office not to govern well, but in pursuit of ego gratification and enrichment for themselves and their cronies. The result is bad public policy.

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2012
many of the ideas Turner attributes to queer theory were developed in the earlier writings of gay liberation, and it is insulting and poor scholarship that he ignores this in what is really a very shoddy piece of work

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2002
From experts to beginners, Bill Turner provides the key to knowing how queer theory began and evolved. This historian and queer theorist maps the various themes and directions the major writers took while founding his book on the essential thoughts of Michel Foucault. This book helps keep my studies on track. I would help a novice gain a perceptive overview.
