The Mermaid and the Minotaur

1999 | Gender Studies | Philosophy, Psychology & Social Sciences

"A seminal text in the womenís movement."
-Ethel S. Person, author of The Sexual Century
"Still the most important work of feminist psychoanalytic exploration, its re-release is a celebratory occasion."
-Eli Sagan, author of Freud, Women and Mortality

"[The Mermaid and the Minotaur] continues to astonish us with the depth and wisdom of its psychoanalytic approach even as its major ideas have become as unobtrusively essential to psychoanalytic feminism as the atmosphere."
-Jessica Benjamin, author of The Bonds of Love

"In a migratory past when both men and women raised children, men developed empathy, patience, attention to detail, and a sense of the value of life; all qualities now wrongly called “feminine.” Dinnerstein will convince you that men again raising children is the key to world peace."

"Enough to convince you that men raising children—and boys being raised to raise children, as girls are, whether either will choose to have children or not—is nothing less than the long term and only reliable path to peace."
