Summary:This book of personal essays by over forty women and men who founded women's studies in Canada and Qu?c explores feminist activism on campus in the pivotal decade of 1966-76. The essays document the emergence of women's studies as a new way of understanding women, men, and society, and they challenge some current preconceptions about "second wave" feminist academics. The contributors explain how the intellectual and political revolution begun by small groups of academics--often young, untenured women--at universities across Canada contributed to social progress and profoundly affected the way.
