'Whatever happened to the women'smovement? Feminism has crashed since the heyday of its 1970's second wave, allegedly a dirty word to many young women...it is therefore encouraging to find [a book] that insists the situation of women is political' - Elizabeth Wilson, The New Humanist http://newhumanist.org.uk/2196/what-happened-to-the-womens-movement

'the clarity in which Why Feminism Matters attempts to reclaim what has been lost, suppressed and sidelined from our conversations about feminism, is nothing short of refreshing.
