Description
Feminism: Issues & Arguments provides an accessible introduction to feminist philosophy, assuming no background in the subject. Drawing on philosophical thought and empirical research, Jennifer Mather Saul presents lucid arguments for various feminist positions while avoiding any particular stance, encouraging students to think critically. The book explores key topics such as pornography, abortion, sexual harassment, and the politics of work and family, focusing on real-world applications that bring the subject to life. By addressing issues that are relevant to students' everyday concerns, this text motivates critical thinking and engagement with feminist philosophy. Ideal for courses in feminism, feminist philosophy/philosophy of women, and sociology of women, Feminism: Issues & Arguments offers a thought-provoking exploration of the subject.
