Description
"This definitive anthology focuses on the 70s and 80s--a time when women made a big and noisy impact on society -- and provides readers with insight into the profound effects that feminism and women's work have had on contemporary culture. Full of sass and insight, this essential collection is part survey, part critical discourse, and part reference book."--Pub. desc.
