Ruby and Alfie, Don't Push That Button by Hil Gibb

This collection of essays by feminist scholar-activists addresses the crucial problem of human security in a world of heavily armed, militarized states. It describes the gendered aspects of human security, integral to the realist militarism that dominates current security policy in most nation states. The book deepens and broadens current security discourses, encouraging serious consideration of alternatives to the present global security system that functions to advantage state security over human security, a system the contributors perceive to be rooted in the patriarchal nature of the nation state.

This second edition will be of interest to academics and students of gender studies, women's studies, international studies, development studies, human rights, security studies, peace studies and peace education.

Hil, Gibb: - Hil was born in Preston, Lancashire not quite when God were a lad. Most mornings, you'll find Hil running her spaniels and power walking. Throughout her time on Earth, she has had an unfailing passion for, and delight in, people, creativity, the wonders of the creative mind and keeping 'shiny'. Story and metaphor have always been Hil's natural means of connecting with others and she finds them powerful tools for learning and high quality communication, as well as sheer entertainment.
