Overview
Applying her Hestian/Hermean Dual Systems approach to varied disciplines such as classics, philosophy, and psychology, Thompson (education and women's studies, City University of New York) challenges the limited view of theories based on patriarchal paradigms (the bed of procrustes), and reclaims the family ecosystem as a place for feminist theory. This second volume in Thomson's "Hestian Trilogy" continues development of Hestian Feminist principles defined in her earlier book "The Accidental Theorist: The Double Helix of Everyday Life." Her feminist theories bridge multiple disciplines and may interest students and professionals in a variety of academic fields. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, ORBook Details
