Diotima: Materials for the Study of Women and Gender in the Ancient World
Diotima is one of the most valuable online resources for the study of the ancient world. Those wanting to conduct scholarship on women and gender will want to look at Diotima first before resorting to other less complete sites. There really is no other resource with such breadth and depth of material, none as helpful for general readers, younger students, scholars, and specialists alike. Materials have been prepared by a wide range of experts, including some of the top feminist scholars in the field.

Gender and Development
The World Bank’s recently introduced GenderNet, like the rest of its extensive Web site, is very slick. The pages are well conceived, easy to navigate and replete with links to useful data, special features, educational institutions, international agencies, and NGOs. The home page is updated weekly; its newsletter section contains pieces on recent World Bank activities, sections called “Focus On” and “Hot Topics”. More important, the site not only offers a variety of reports and documents on women across the world, it provides access to unique and comprehensive data sets-an instructional treasure house-compiled from national statistics, United Nations information and surveys that only the World Bank has been in a position to undertake.
