Book Synopsis
Gone are the days when feminism translated simply into the advocacy of equality for women. Women's interests are not always aligned; race, class, and sexuality complicate the equation. This book examines the social, political, and psychological ramifications of this phenomenon, as evidenced in a range of texts.

Trade Review
This important anthology reminds us that sisterhood is what we have to work towards not something we can assume as given on the basis of some alleged commonality of biology. It teaches that such work requires grappling with differences which cut to the core of who women are and what women want. This is a must read for all those who are willing to face such work as well as for those who have not yet grasped its necessity. -- Linda Nicholson,Professor, State University of New York at Albany and editor of the series Thinking Gender
