Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Subject to Debate, Katha Pollitt's column in The Nation, has offered readers clear-eyed yet provocative observations on women, politics, and culture for more than seven years. Bringing together eighty-eight of her most astute essays on hot-button topics like abortion, affirmative action, and school vouchers, this selection displays the full range of her indefatigable wit and brilliance. Her stirring new Introduction offers a seasoned critique of feminism at the millennium and is a clarion call for renewed activism against social injustice. Review:"There isn't a hotly debated sociopolitical issue that Pollitt hasn't taken on with conviction and blazing originality...She is an astonishingly gifted writer."
