Feminist Interpretations of René Descartes

"This is a superb collection that will expand the parameters of debate over Descartes's legacy for a long time to come. It includes discussions of multiple themes: the implications of Descartes's epistemology for feminists and feminist epistemology, the implications of his metaphysics for social constructions of women, the historical context of his intellectual relations with women, an exploration of reasons why his female critics have been so erased from contemporary history of philosophy, and others."
