Summary:
Enters the ongoing debates over the utility of the "wave" metaphor for capturing the complex history of women's rights by offering perspectives on the diverse movements that comprise U.S. feminism, past and present. Seventeen essays--both original and reprinted--address continuities, conflicts, and transformations among women's movements in the United States from the early nineteenth century through today.
