A book of tremendous influence when it first appeared, A Mind of
One's Own reminded readers that the tradition of Western
philosophy-- in particular, the ideals of reason and objectivity--
has come down to us from white males, nearly all of whom are
demonstrably sexist, even misogynist. In this second edition, the
original authors continue to ask, What are the implications of this
fact for contemporary feminists working within this tradition? The
second edition pursues this question about the value of reason and
objectivity in new directions using the fresh perspectives and
diverse viewpoints of the new generation of feminist philosophers.
A Mind of One's Own is essential reading and an essential reference
for philosophers and for all scholars and students concerned about
the nature of knowledge and our pursuit of it.
