The essays in this volume bring to their focuses on philosophical issues the new angles of vision created by the multicultural, global, and postcolonial feminisms that have been developing around us. These multicultural, global, and postcolonial feminist concerns transform mainstream notions of experience, human rights, the origins of philosophic issues, philosophic uses of metaphors of the family, white antiracism, human progress, scientific progress, modernity, the unity of scientific method, the desirability of universal knowledge claims, and other ideas central to philosophy.

من المهم ان تقرأ كل نسوية هذا الكتاب خصوصا النسوية العربية ..بل على الجميع في هذه الظرفية التاريخية أن يقرأه والكتاب من جزأين عبارة عن ١٥ مقالة لأبرز الفكر النسوي الفلسفي ..هي محاولة لفهم عالمنا والبحث عن عالم قابل لفهم الآخر والتعامل معه.
