Book Reviews of The Sexual Contract
Book Review: A must-read, non-political and sensible exploration...
Summary: 4 Stars
This book was assigned as part of a college course on Gender and Race in American Political Thought. This was the first such book I'd read that didn't rely on political cliches to make it's point. Pateman offers a sensible and attainable solution and offers a look at gender relations that isn't steeped in anger, but maintains an urgency. It's a must-read for anyone who thinks they know the answers. My hat is off to Pateman.
