Book description
In her bestselling book The Beauty Myth, Naomi Wolf sought to
change the way in which women see themselves in relation to their
bodies. Now she focuses on how they see themselves in relation to
power.
She argues that the feminist movement has to change if it is to
speak to a new generation of women, and that, even as women are
gaining more ground than ever before, a wariness of feminist
orthodoxies keeps them away from the only movement capable of putting
political clout behind their personal success. The book represents a
call to women to throw off centuries of conditioning about the
relationship between power and femininity.
Naomi Wolf is the author of
The Beauty Myth
, an international bestseller, and named one of the most significant
books of the century by the
New York Times
. She lectures widely.
