Reader Reviews
This is a highly readable, somewhat academic (re)discovery of gender script-building in the Doyle stories. It chronologically tours the Canon & does not reduce (as almost every other book on the topic does) to fandom fallout. Anyone challenged by the originals & depressed by pastiche will be rewarded. The references & bibliography are valuable. Baden-Powell is the departure point--which was promising enough to get me to buy the book itself. Either a lot of people are thinking about this stuff, or almost no one is; but the author makes a case, out of both his own thoughts & the writing of others, which makes it seem a lively & inspiring debate has formed.
