Summary Although there is a small body of feminist scholarship that problematizes gender in public relations, gender is a relatively undefined area of thinking in the field and there have been few serious studies of the socially constructed roles defining women and men in public relations. This book is positioned within the critical public relations stream. Through the prism of 'gender and public.
Positioned within the critical public relations stream, this book examines many previously unexplored areas through the prism of gender and public relations. Daymon, Murdoch University; Demetrious, Deakin University
