[Mia Pennington · Rating 4 out of 5]

Normally when I’m researching a topic, I just find the most relevant chapter of a book and read that. But when I started the introduction of this book I just knew the entire thing was going to be a bit of me. So I read the entire thing!!! So I’m adding it to my goodreads. If you’re remotely interested in feminism and how male dominance impacts our everyday lives, and has done throughout history, give it a read!

My most underlined and written-in textbook. This book does everything from explaining the different "forms" of feminism and their influences on feminist legal theory to giving specific examples of how feminist legal analysis has been applied to several landmark cases. A must-read for any feminist.
