a very impressive collection ... a remarkably thorough cross-section of texts ... essays that are readable and exciting ... The section on Technologies is especially original, provocative, and forward looking.

Lynne Segal, Middlesex University
a comprehensive, ambitious and brilliantly thought-out collection ... This reader is the ideal companion for anyone who is engaged in research or reflection on contemporary feminism
Rosi Braidotti, Utrecht University
a wonderfully diverse sampling of the richness that is feminisms ... a valuable text for classes and an equally valuable reference tool
Jean F. O'Barr, Duke University
exceptionally clear and useful thematic introductions that highlight debates and diversity
Barbara D. Miller, George Washington University
One could not have a more comprehensive guide to western feminist theory of the last sixteen years than Feminisms provides. Their introductions to the materials convey the excitement that this diversity brings.
Jennifer Hornsby, Birkbeck College, London
Feminisms is that ideal text and reference book ... Paced with substantive (and in some cases highly original) introductions throughout ... while it might be less than academic to label Feminisms "a great read", it is.
Linda Wagner-Martin, University of North Carolina
Innovative, inclusive, interesting.
Shulamit Reinharz, Brandeis University
an anthology which will no doubt influence scholarship for years to come
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Columbia University
