Reviews

"The Cambridge Companion to Feminism in Philosophy is first-rate." - Ethics

"The articles are independent pieces of scholarship in very discrete areas of philosophy and, as such, demonstrate the rich diversity of feminist thought.... This book complements well those volumes...devoted to feminist interpretations of major philosophers, and it belongs in most academic libraries. Recommended for general readers, upper-division undergraduates, and graduate students." - Choice

"Feminism has not yet achieved the authoritative standing within philosophy that it enjoys in, say, literary criticism, where a survey text that omitted feminist perspectives would not be considered intellectually respectable. As a result, the editors of this fine volume have once again had to defend feminism's importance to philosophy. If we are to reach the state where feminist philosophy no more needs to justify its existence than does pragmatism or neo-Kantianism, it will be books of this caliber that get us there." -
