This is the little book that started a revolution, making women’s
voices heard, in their own right and with their own integrity, for
virtually the first time in social scientific theorizing about women.
Its impact was immediate and continues to this day, in the academic
world and beyond. Translated into sixteen languages, with more than
700,000 copies sold around the world, In a Different Voice has
inspired new research, new educational initiatives, and political
debate—and helped many women and men to see themselves and each
other in a different light. Carol Gilligan believes that psychology
has persistently and systematically misunderstood women—their
motives, their moral commitments, the course of their psychological
growth, and their special view of what is important in life. Here she
sets out to correct psychology’s misperceptions and refocus its view
of female personality. The result is truly a tour de force, which may
well reshape much of what psychology now has to say about female
experience.
