Contemporary Perspectives on Girls' Educational Achievement: What About the Girls? offers fresh insights into girls' perceptions and experiences of educational achievement in the contemporary context.

'What about the boys?' is a common exclamation in debates which centre around young people's educational achievements. But what about the girls? Is their success as simple and straightforward as government produced figures would have us believe it to be? Bringing together the wealth of international research on girls' educational achievement and drawing on insights from over 15 years of the author's own empirical research, this book explores educational achievement as a phenomenon that is affectively and subjectively experienced, which has a much wider field of reference than attainment in tests and examinations. It addresses key issues which are of emerging contemporary relevance - issues that are new, have been overlooked, or have gained new significance and require fresh exploration today.

Contemporary Perspectives on Girls' Educational Achievement: What About the Girls? is suitable for students and academic researchers from a range of disciplines such as Education, Psychology, Sociology, Cultural and Media Studies, as well as for educational practitioners with an interest in equalities in education.

Alexandra Allan is Associate Professor in Education and Head of Department for the School of Education at the University of Exeter, UK. Her research is based in the field of the Sociology of Education.
