1.		The Gentleman's Daughter: Women's Lives in Georgian England (Yale Nota Bene) from Yale University Press Price: £6.39 Customer Review: Many books can be found outlining Georgian political history and more than one biography has been written on Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, but the everyday lives of genteel women have had less attention. In this book, Vickery uses surviving letters, diaries, accounts and pocketbooks of a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		In a Different Voice: Psychological Theory and Women's Development from Harvard University Press Price: £9.95 Customer Review: This book is truly amazing. For any woman who feels she has lost clarity and fierceness and the ability to tell the truth about how she feels and what is going on in the world of feelings and relationships, the social world which she inhabits, read Gilligan's work (any of it). The book made me... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		Full Frontal Feminism: A Young Woman's Guide to Why Feminism Matters from Seal Press (CA) Price: £11.99 Customer Review: If ever there was a woman that proved C.H. Sommer's arguments irrefutably, it would be Valenti. Never have I had the severe displeasure of reading such coyly misogyny-inspiring muck since the SCUM Manifesto. If you are a young woman looking to find out what feminism really is, then I implore... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Reading the "L Word" (Reading Contemporary Television) from I B Tauris & Co Ltd Price: £7.14 Customer Review: Unlike the sister book on the L word this one has no pictures whatsoever. Instead it is a series of articles by academics, and journalists on the phenomenon that is the L word. Again a good book to dip in and out of its interesting to read about the L word in context of the political climate that... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Unbearable Weight: Feminism, Western Culture, and the Body from University of California Press Price: £12.30 Customer Review: A fantastic Feminist study of popular culture using a Foucauldian approach, arguing how our body is not only a text of culture, but also a direct locus of social control. The book argues that the so defined 'women's diseases' of hysteria in the 19th century, and aggrophobia and anorexia in the 20th... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		Bodies That Matter: On the Discursive Limits of Sex from Routledge Price: £16.99 Customer Review: This book clarifies much of Foucault was saying in History of Sexuality. Butler is careful, however, to not borrow the models Foucault uses, thereby, avoids some of the mistakes and gaps that occur in his thinking, namely the silence on women. Butler, more than Foucault, is not willing to settle the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
