In the tradition of Kate Millet's classic work, SEXUAL POLITICS, Sheila Tobias provides an activist's recollection of the women's movement over the past 35 years. Life, and academic, experience enables Tobias to view at once all sides of such issues as sexual preference, pornography, the "Mommy Track", affirmative action, reproductive rights, and the challenges of "equality" versus "difference".
