Gender scholarship during the last four decades has shown that the
exclusion of women's voices and perspectives has diminished
academic disciplines in important ways. Traditional scholarship in
philosophy is no different. The 'recovery project' in philosophy is
engaged in re-discovering the names, lives, texts, and perspectives
of women philosophers from the 6th Century BCE to the present.
Karen Warren brings together 16 colleagues for a unique,
groundbreaking study of Western philosophy which combines pairs of
leading men and women philosophers over the past 2600 years,
acknowledging and evaluating their contributions to foundational
themes in philosophy, including epistemology, metaphysics, and
ethics. Introductory essays, primary source readings, and
commentaries comprise each chapter to offer a rich and accessible
introduction to and evaluation of these vital philosophical
contributions. A helpful appendix canvasses an extraordinary number
of women philosophers for further discovery and study.
