Shapers of the Great Debate on Women's Rights by Joyce D Duncan
The three waves of feminism are explored through the lives of the women who made history in bringing women's issues to the forefront of American society. It was women's fundamental need for independence and an identity of their own, separate from that of men, which thrust the women's movement forward and continues to propel it today.
