Sexism in Textbooks: A Guide to Detection

Schenck, John P.

American Vocational Journal, 51, 7, 42-45, Oct 76

The author contends that even though forces are at work to eliminate sexism in employment and education, sex stereotyping is so ingrained in the culture it is almost impossible to detect in discourse of any kind, let alone textbooks. The author offers a guide to detection. (Editor/HD)
