Feminism and Philosophy Résumé

Feminism and Philosophy: Perspectives on Difference and Equality Moira Gatens (University of Sydney, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia)

This extremely accessible textbook provides a wide-ranging analysis of the relations between philosophy and feminist thought. Examining not only feminist critiques of philosophical ideas, Gatens also looks at the ways in which feminist theory can be informed by philosophical analysis and debates.

Gatens adopts an historical approach, beginning with an analysis of Mary Wollstonecraft's critique of Rousseau. She then examines attempts by Harriet Taylor and J. S. Mill to extend liberal principles to women's situation. Other chapters discuss the work of more recent philosophers, including Simone de Beauvoir, Luce Irigaray, Mary Daly and Dale Spender. Gatens concludes with a discussion of current debates in the politics of sexual difference.

'Gaten's thesis is persuasively argued and the book provides and economical and readable resume of the major contributions to feminist theory from the seventeenth century to the late 1980s. It will be a constructive addition to philosophy and theory reading lists.' Political Studies
