Holly Lawford-Smith is Associate Professor in Political Philosophy at the University of Melbourne.
""In this tightly argued and persuasive book, Lawford-Smith thinks her way through questions of political affiliation, feminist activism and what it takes to achieve change rather than simply signal one’s position. For those of us who count ourselves as feminists but not of the left, it’s an invigorating read. For leftists who think our rejection of their politics means we’re not feminists, it should be eye-opening."" Helen Joyce, author of Trans ""In this powerfully argued book about the essential nature of feminism, Holly Lawford-Smith contends that a feminist is someone who works to defend the rights and interests of women, as a distinct class of people. Feminism has no other agenda and is not the captive of any other ideal or ideology. In clear, accessible writing, Lawford-Smith develops a cogent case for this view by means of rigorous philosophical argument, without the polemics that disfigure so much other writing on the issues she addresses."" Jeff McMahan, University of Oxford
