4.9/5 (22745 ratings)

Description:Two respected feminist scholars show how political correctness has turned academic feminism into a parody of itself and suggest how to get back on track. "Dismayed by what they claim are the dogmatic methods inherent in many women's studies programs, Patai and Koertge, two feminist academics, urgently call for introspection and reform. Recounting the experiences of colleagues who have grown alienated and disenchanted with the movement, the authors convincingly demonstrate that on many campuses feminist scholarship is being subverted by indoctrination, separatism, political agendas, and a militant intolerance for opposing viewpoints. The authors call for a new "humanistic feminism" that promotes the liberal principle of tolerance and inquiry. This study should alert concerned women to the dangers of ideological chauvinism and serve as a guide for the realignment of women's programs. Essential reading for anyone involved in women's studies."-Carol McAllister"A wake-up call to feminist women in academe." -Kirkus ReviewsWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
