An impressive introduction by the editor provides a chronological overview of English-language feminist engagements with Rawls from his __Theory of Justice__ onward. Abbey surveys the range of issues canvassed by feminist readers of Rawls, as well as critics’ wide disagreement about the value of Rawls’s corpus for feminist purposes.

Baehr, Eileen Hunt Botting, Elizabeth Brake, Clare Chambers, N
