4.0
Currently free from Verso Books - this ebook contains extracts from four radical feminist thinkers. I found this an excellent and concise introduction to their ideas, though it wouldn’t be my recommendation for someone new to feminist thought, as it doesn’t reflect contemporary thinking on LGBTQ+ feminists or nonbinary people, due to when the essays were written. Included are:
•The Anti-Social Family: a socialist critique and evaluation of the nuclear family
•Straight Sex: a manifesto arguing that heterosexual sex hurts women
•Woman’s Consciousness, Man’s World: considering the progression of feminist thought in a patriarchy
•Woman’s Estate: a socialist-feminist statement outlining a new world vision
•The Anti-Social Family: a socialist critique and evaluation of the nuclear family
