Description:
New Delhi, India: Kali for Women, 1996. This book uncovers the biases that underlie mainstream development theory and account for the marginal status given to women's needs in current development policy; it traces the emergence of women as a specific category in development thought and examines alternative frameworks for analyzing gender heirarchies; it identifies the household as the primary site for the construction of power relations and compares the extent to which gender inequalities are revealed in different approaches to the concept of the family unit; it assesses the poverty line as a measuring tool and provides a critical overview of population control, an issue fiercely contested by feminists (black paper-covered boards with gold lettering, slight edgewear; otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy). Second Printing. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket.

This is a study of first-time upper middle-class mothers and their image of motherhood; it focuses on women in their thirties who had established careers before having a child and shows how they do not want to reproduce the mothering they themselves received; they do not want to emulate the traditional image of self-sacrificing mother; while recognizing that the new mother is expected to consider her own needs as well as her child's, they nonetheless lack close relationships, especially with other women, and have an image of the new mother as being able to care for herself and her child without social support

New Brunswick, NJ, U.S.A.: Transaction Publishers, 1994. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. This essay in cultural history concieves of opera as a laboratory for continual exploration of the powers hidden in the interaction between words and music; its origins in Renaissance Italy are traced to the belief of the Humanists that the magical properties of music could be harnessed, to the transition from polyphony to monody that gave musical expression to individualism, to the melodramatic propensity of Italian culture reflected in its literary and theatrical arts, and to the Florentine salon of burgers, aristocrats, scientists, and artists whose agenda included the challenge to rediscover how the ancient Greeks succeeded in heightening the rhetorical power of words by allying them with music; originally published in 1986, this edition includes a new introduction by the author in which she reconsiders her original work (white cover has very slight edgewear, otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
