The politics of individualism : liberalism, liberal feminism and anarchism

The liberal feminist works of John Stuart Mill, Betty Friedan, and Janet Radcliffe Richards are critically examined, and compared and contrasted to the anarcho-feminism of Emma Goldman. "One of the refreshing points about this analysis is the fact that it makes sense of a lot of modern history."-- Kick It Over
