Beyond God the Father

by Mary Daly

It is truly the first philosophy of feminism, the first psychology of the feminist experience. Daly's book goes far beyond other key works of the movement to describe a radical feminist's possible ways of being in a patriarchal world, the kinds of spaces and boundaries she will occupy, the problems of language, memory, relation she will encounter. The publication of Beyond God the Father is a milestone in the movement toward human liberation. - Adrienne Rich, on back cover.
