THE ROUTLEDGE COMPANION TO FEMINIST PHILOSOPHY The Routledge Companion to Feminist Philosophy is an outstanding guide and reference source to the key topics, subjects, thinkers, and debates in feminist philosophy. Fifty- six chapters, written by an international team of contributors specifically for the Companion, are organized into five sections: (1) Engaging the Past; (2) Mind, Body, and World; (3) Knowledge, Language, and Science; (4) Intersections; (5) Ethics, Politics, and Aesthetics. The volume provides a mutually enriching representation of the sev- eral philosophical traditions that contribute to feminist philosophy. It also foregrounds issues of global concern and scope; shows how feminist theory meshes with rich theo- retical approaches that start from transgender identities, race and ethnicity, sexuality, disabilities, and other axes of identity and oppression; and highlights the interdiscipli- narity of feminist philosophy and the ways that it both critiques and contributes to the whole range of subfields within philosophy. Ann Garry is Professor Emerita of Philosophy at California State University, Los Angeles. Her work in feminist philosophy ranges from applied ethics to intersectionality and feminist philosophical methods. Serene J. Khader is Jay Newman Chair in Philosophy of Culture at Brooklyn College and Associate Professor at the CUNY Graduate Center. Her research in feminist philosophy focuses on global gender justice. Alison Stone is Professor of European Philosophy at Lancaster University, UK. She specializes in feminist philosophy and post-Kantian European philosophy in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
