Kritik
"This collection contains a number of insightful essays, some of which are suitable for inclusion in undergraduate feminist philosophy courses and may be of interest to scholars researching related topics. Each essay reveals different ways that 'women's embodiment still constitutes contested terrain.'" (Erinn Gilson, Hypatia Reviews Online, hypatiareviews.org, April, 2020)

"Reading this collection of chapters is a rewarding and moving experience; the latter a signal that what is being addressed here is about relationship and shared (and differing) humanity and suffering. ... what we are dealing with here is a critical and sincere discussion (not the pursuit of mastery); a collective pursuit of both making visible and making a difference, pushing against the tide of crass right-wing and neoliberal 'rationality' and rabid patriarchy that so taints our current world." (Clifford van Ommen, Feminism & Psychology, January 23, 2020)mehr
