Gyn/ecology : the metaethics of radical feminism
by Mary Daly is an interesting, if a bit on the whacky side of feminist texts. If you have no interest in feminist rhetoric, or any of that sort of thing, you don't need to waste any of your time with this, although it is certainly presenting a different viewpoint.

GREAT!GREAT!

Thie was required reading for a class I took and it is an amazing book! Mary Daly is well known in the feminist arena. This book helps show why.I am dismayed to see othe readers (men and religous freaks) who brush the book aside without recognizing it's importance. Christianity is not the all it's cracked up to be and men have been trying to squash women since the dawn of time. That is a truth. God ( whoever you think her to be) has little to do with it. OPEN your eyes, and read this book!

Excellent scholarship and fun to read

We used this book as a textbook in a class I took in Graduate school, and it made me think more than just about any other book I read in grad school. Intellectual, but not dry. It made me want to read all her other books; they're good too but this one is my favorite because it kind of functions like a textbook, not that it's dry but because it gives a kind of broad survey of history. It's a great exercise in learning to think outside the box.

Needed Now More Than Ever

I first read Mary Daly;s works in the early 90's - I revisit regularly to maintain the perspective, so that I will not be sucked into the manufacture of consent for such belitteling and anti-woman activities such as "Hunting for Bambi" or believe that female genital mutilation is a "tradition" that must be preserved. If you care about the future - this book is an intellectual and spiritual watershed. Highly Reccommended.

"In this deeply original, provocative book, outrage, hilarity, grief, profanity, lyricism and moral daring join in bursting the accustomed bounds even of feminist discourse."
