The authors tackle six broad topics that dominate the field and are key to understanding women's experiences and prospects: women's bodies, anger & desires, sexuality, internal backlash, feminist methods, & identity politics. The authors consider why there is a resistance to the development of American feminism and women's studies in the academy, with their continuing representation of marginalized, excluded, and silenced voices.

Rezensionen
Rogers and Garrett have raised provocative questions for academic feminists to consider, including the effects of what the authors call the 'institutionalization of women's studies.' This is a book that is sure to spur debate about the past, present and future of feminism within the academy. -- Wendy Luttrell, Harvard Graduate School of Education This book will be useful to advanced students of women's studies and academics alike by prompting discussion on where we've been, where we're going, and what obstacles we're likely to encounter.
