About The Book

For reasons largely political, mainstream philosophy is reluctant to attack feminism, instead relegating it to the status of a crazy aunt in the attic. In Feminism Under Fire, Ellen R. Klein scales the forbidden staircase to critique contemporary feminism. Ruthlessly analytical yet eminently accessible, with lucid prose she undresses academic feminism, exposing its pretensions, dogmas, fallacies, and peccadilloes. Discussing such diverse topics as feminist epistemology, philosophy of science, and pedagogy, Klein's work is a personal memoir of a female philosopher coming of age and coming to terms with feminism as it relates to university politics and teaching.
