Description and Table of Contents

Description

This anthology, first launched as a series of lectures at St. Hilda's, Oxford to commemorate the centenary of the college, celebrates the contribution of seven women to their fields of research. Spanning a diverse range of subjects from physics to English literature, the essays in this volume confront new and contentious issues at the forefront of intellectual life. Contributing to the anthology are Hannah Segal, one of Britain's leading psychoanalysts; Mary Lefkowitz, the classicist; Mary Warnock, who provides an overview of moral philosophy; the literary critic and cultural historian, Marilyn Butler; endocrinologist, Lesley Rees; theoretical physicist, Cecilia Jarlskog; and biologist, Marion Dawkins.
