β¦ Synopsis
Included in this work is a great deal of substantive review of the literature about sexism in our society and the dominance of the male role and its warlike tendencies. For this alone, the book is worthwhile. But even more important is the perspective of the radial feminist and the significance of this to the ultimate development of a peaceful society where differences between people are allowed to exist and where those differences can be resolved through nonviolent methods of dispute resolution that emphasize cooperation and integration of varying points of view.
