Split Decisions: How and Why to Take a Break from Feminism

Split Decisions is a bold and nuanced new approach to questions of feminism and sexuality. In a field that's crowded with politically correct dogma and snide reaction, it stands out as critique in the noblest sense of that tradition: Halley is sensitive to feminism's contributions but she also refuses to apologize for its contradictions and its limitations. Split Decisions is more than a critique; it initiates a paradigm shift—Halley offers insights into the intersection of law and feminism that have never been seen in print before.—Richard T. Ford, Stanford Law SchoolThis is a wide-ranging, vastly original, knowing, and challenging book; there is nothing like it in any of the antinormative challenges of the last two decades. What's more, its cheerful polemic is a pleasure to read.—Lauren Berlant, University of Chicago, author of The Queen of America Goes to Washington City: Essays on Sex and Citizenship Carol Sternhell - Chicago Sun-Times [C]ompelling and intellectually stimulating.
