{"product_id":"inessential-woman-isbn-9780807067451","title":"Inessential Woman","description":"Throughout history, Western philosophers have buried women's characters under the category of \"men's nature.\" Feminist theorists, responding to this exclusion, have often been guilty of this exlcusion as well – focusing only on white, middle-class women and treating others as inessential. \u003ci\u003eInessential Woman \u003c\/i\u003eis an eloquent argument against white, middle-class bias in feminist theory. It warns against trying to seperate feminist thinking and politics from issues of race and class, and challenges the assumption of homogeneity that underlies much of feminist thought.Spelman uses her considerable erudition and analytical abilities to bring white, middle-class feminist theorists and their profoundest critics closer together. —\u003ci\u003eThe Women's Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"An energetically thought-provoking contribution to current developments in feminist theory.\" —\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eElizabeth V.
