Amazing workBy Øystein Gullvåg HolterThis is a really amazing work; going outside its field of archaeology and showing why this field is important for research and society at large. Agree or disagree; the author lifts the whole sex/gender argument to a new level.As a sociologist working with the variability of gender issues even in our own society; I find myself thinking: at last; someone out there from the "harder" sciences who have understood the complexity of the subject.I am reading the book now; and sure; I will have critical comments also; but I write this is in order to bring it to notice. Here is a work that is head and shoulders beyond the average "what I think about sex/gender with some select findings" kind. A good read for all; and a must read for gender researchers.12 of 13 people found the following review helpful. An engaging bookBy Stephen MartzArchaeology is not my field; but from the first page on; that did not seem to matter. Rosemary Joyce writes with both scholarly depth and engaging accessibility; I could hardly put the book down.I especially appreciated her nuanced navigation of the field of gender studies; which sometimes can be more political than scholarly. That was not at all the case in Ancient Bodies; Ancient Lives. Joyce did what the best authors do: inspire me to read more in her field(s) -- and more of her work.
