1.		Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity (Routledge Classics) from Routledge Price: $14.93 Customer Review: Of course Butler's books on gender are breathtaking classics and receive 5 stars from me in their print editions. I assign them all the time in my Gender Studies class. But this Kindle edition is messy. This is the problem I keep finding with the Kindle editions. It's insulting of Amazon to assume... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Bodies That Matter: On the Discursive Limits of Sex from Routledge Price: $23.73 Customer Review: My initial reaction to reading Bodies that Matter by Judith Butler is that she writes from a very unique perspective and theoretical standpoint: post-structuralism. While she maybe considered one of the foremost theorists on gender and feminism, I find her writings extremely difficult to follow. She... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Giving an Account of Oneself from Fordham University Press Price: $12.89 Customer Review: This book is terrific! I recomend it to anyone familiar with Butler's work (though it is very distinct from much of her older work) or for anyone who thinks it looks even the slightest bit interesting. Even if you disagree with Butler, the book won't disappoint!	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		What Can You Do with a Paper Bag? Customer Review: Unfortunately, I have to disagree with the 5-star ratings this book received previously. My 6-year old son will do anything arts & crafts related, and he showed no interest at all in this book. The only benefit from this book is that it got him thinking about what else he could create using his... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Precarious Life: The Power of Mourning and Violence from Verso Price: $12.24 Customer Review: I read this book yesterday and just ate it up. It's not the usual esoteric examination by Butler. (Not that anything is wrong with that and I've read her other work, as well). That said, the book is written for a lay audience and I think that this book needed to be published, since the... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Who Sings the Nation-State?: Language, Politics, Belonging from Seagull Books Price: $13.57 Customer Review: This is not a good book. No contextual background is given for Butler and Spivak's theoretical dialogue on statelessness, and the dialogue itself is at turns pedantic (see Butler's punning on the word "state") and banal (see both critics' comments on the EU). The dialogue's alternating obfuscation... more info	Customer Rating: 2.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Undoing Gender from Routledge Price: $30.53 Customer Review: Butler, Judith. "Undoing Gender, Routledge, 2004. Living Livable Life Amos Lassen and Literary Pride Judith Butler's "Undoing Gender" is a much easier book to read than "Gender Trouble" and it gives us a great deal of food for thought. The book is a rather provocative look of the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Excitable Speech: A Politics of the Performative from Routledge Price: $76.70 Customer Review: Butler is a difficult author to understand, particularly if you don't have a background in theories of performativity. I recommend reading JL Austin's How to Do Things with Words and Derrida's Limited, Inc either before or alongside this book. She also draws heavily from Foucault and Althusser.... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Psychic Life of Power: Theories in Subjection from Stanford University Press Price: $19.75 Customer Review: Are you a man who is attracted to women? Did you know why? It's because when you were an infant, you wanted to have sex with other men but your parents told you not to. Then you wanted to have sex with your own mother, but your parents forbid you to do that as well. So, unable to HAVE your objects... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		The Judith Butler Reader from Wiley-Blackwell Price: $38.17	Click here for more information


11.		Contingency, Hegemony, Universality: Contemporary Dialogues on the Left from Verso Price: $16.47 Customer Review: Very strange book--courageous, but disappointing in many ways. Butler tries throughout to get the others to think of gays/lesbians as something more than examples of minorities--they refuse. Laclau's second essay is positively bitchy and contemptuous. Zizek presses the other two to be more active... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Antigone's Claim from Columbia University Press Price: $19.80 Customer Review: I haven't finished this extremely short text yet. It was originally a small series of lectures. Basically, Butler critiques Hegel's and Lacan's appropriations of Antigone (both the play and, especially, the character) to represent a certain ideal. She summarizes rather lucidly both Hegel's and... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

14.		Prejudicial Appearances: The Logic of American Antidiscrimination Law from Duke University Press Price: $21.95	Click here for more information


15.		Subjects of Desire from Columbia University Press Price: $24.30 Customer Review: Judith Butler, who is nowadays best known for her theory of "performative" gender differenciation, wrote her thesis about the reception of Hegel's philosophy in France. The book is not an exhaustive overview of Hegelian reflections as they appeared, in various forms, in the twentieth century France,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
