Reviews:
  • This bibliography fills a void in the literature on the role of women in Nigeria....Recommended for large Africana collections.

    Choice
  • The bibliography does valuable work in providing an overview of much Nigerian research, which, due to the contraints in publishing opportunities, rarely becomes known outside conference rooms....[S]hould be very helpful to researchers, especially those outside the country.

    Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria:
    This is a very interesting and useful compilation which covers a wide range of ideas and issues related to gender and womens issues. This book will make an excellent text in a variety of disciplines and fields including sociology, education, women's studies, psychology, religion, law, medicine, etc. It offers a wealth of information which will be appreciated inside and outside the classroom and is of universal importance.
  • Endorsement From Professor R. N. Oranu, Director
    Institute of Education, University of Nigeria:
    An invaluable source book for students and others interested in feminist perspectives.
Description: Previously a neglected area, women's studies is now a recognized field of study in Nigeria. With more than 500 annotated entries, this bibliography documents the literature on Nigerian women. It covers material from books, journals, theses, dissertations, government documents, and conference papers from 1975 to 1993, the most recent date for which published Nigerian sources are available. Entries appear in chapters devoted to agriculture and economy, national development, education and training, health, home and family, and labor force and workplace. A valuable source of data on women in Nigeria, the book will be useful for researchers and planners interested in women in this country and women in general.
