Feminism - A Reference Handbook

While its primary focus is the United States, Feminism also examines how multiculturalism and global thinking have infused today''s feminists with a sense of widened responsibility for girls and women worldwide. Readers will find a cultural overview of society''s changing perception of women and a thoughtful analysis of the directions feminism is taking today. Other sections include a chronology of significant events, a collection of biographical sketches, and annotated listings of organizations and print and nonprint resources, including Internet coverage. Rounded out by a comprehensive index, this volume is excellent for anyone seeking a one-stop reference work on feminism.
