Detailed case studies and cross-cultural examples help students understand how such generalizations are experienced in real life. The authors also consider the ramifications of current social problems and recent developments in reproductive technology as they demonstrate the relevance of kinship and gender to students' lives. The new edition contains a revised introduction highlighting the disaggregation of marriage and reproduction; new sections on third gender, nonbinary, and trans identities; new case studies on spiritual kinship; as well as explorations of genetic and ancestral kinship paradigms, new reproductive technologies, and a more robust global perspective throughout. Pedagogical features include suggestions for classroom media, a glossary, an appendix, and downloadable PowerPoint slides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKinship and Gender: An Introduction \u003c\/i\u003eprovides a broad, yet nuanced introduction to the field, and is essential reading for students taking their first steps into anthropology, gender studies, and sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLinda Stone \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor Emeritus of Anthropology at Washington State University, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiane E.
