Description: Phyllis Chesler's Letters to a Young Feminist is a visionary message from a leading feminist revolutionary to the generation of feminists - women and men - emerging today. Chesler weaves her personal experiences with the history of the movement to assess the accomplishments and failures of her generation, as she encourages the next to take on what remains to be done.

With frankness and candor, Chesler discusses the basic aspects of feminism, explains feminism's relevance in a world that is the danger of taking it for granted, and steers the next generation toward reclaiming feminism for itself. She examines sisterhood, sex, families and motherhood, resistance to the status quo, work, feminist heroism, and the economics of power.
