A history of the rise and fall of radical feminism in the United States from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, the movement whose activism and ideas powered second-wave feminism. Echols traces the groups, debates and divisions of the period, including the conflict between lesbian and heterosexual feminists and the rise of cultural feminism. This thirtieth anniversary edition shows how current debates about race, transgender rights, queer theory and sexuality echo the issues that galvanized and divided feminists fifty years ago.
