Fire with Fire
Wolf, Naomi
ISBN: 0701160853
London Chatto and Windus 4 November, 1993
8vo softcover 256pp very good. This work calls for a new kind of feminism and new female attitudes to power. The author argues that the feminist movement has to change if it is to speak to a new generation of women. There is a widening gap between much feminist rhetoric and most women's lives. 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. "Fire with Fire" aims to provide a blueprint for a revitalized, inclusive brand of feminism. And it is a call to women themselves to throw off centuries of conditioning about the relationship between power and femininity: they must be prepared to wrest power and use it.

The F Word: How We Learned to Swear by Feminism
Caro, Jane and Catherine Fox
ISBN: 0868408239
New South Books 2008
8vo softcover 250pp near fine. Index. When it comes to the work/life balance, modern women continually find themselves in a no-win situation where they are criticised regardless of the path they choose. The F Word: How we learned to swear by feminism argues that the pervasive idea that women will never be able to effectively combine work or interests outside the home with marriage, a social life and parenting is a furphy. In their lively and topical new book, Caro and Fox combine both personal experience and the stories of a range of women with the big picture, and provide practical suggestions for forgiving ourselves, having fun and not giving up while holding it all together.
