The Politics of Women's Spirituality by Charlene Spretnak

This feminist classic (first published in 1982) presents a chorus of voices exploring their authentic spirituality. The essays are active rather than reactive, revolutionary rather than reformist, and express a broad political awareness. Rather than codifying a religion exclusively for women, the authors address a range of contemporary issues that are informed by spirituality, our attitude toward life on Earth.

Part One: Discovering a History of Power
- What the Goddess Means to Women
- Mythic Heras as Models of Strength and Wisdom

Part Two: Manifesting Personal Power
- Consciousness/Energy/Action
- Self-Images of Strength and Wholeness

Part Three: Transforming the Political
- The Unity of Politics and Spirituality
- Applications of Spirituality as a Political Force

Green Politics (1984) and States of Grace: The Recovery of Meaning in the Postmodern Era (1991) are two books by Charlene Spretnak, one of the ecofeminist movement's founders, on social issues, ecological ideas, and spiritual concerns.
