Note that the word "Gender" has been added to the title and that it's "newly revised and updated". I don't know if this version is available online, but a lot of public libraries seem to have it, at least in my area.

I made this discovery when I went to see whether my library has this book. I'm delighted to report that it does, and so do most of the other libraries in the shared catalog. Many have multiple copies, and several have more than one edition. It might be worth checking one's local public library to see if they have a copy.

who is working to keep books in the library. She is on the board with new members who are working to ban books. It is a struggle in many towns.
