Examining the work of such feminist theorists as Carol Gilligan, Nancy Chodorow, and, Jessica Benjamin in a new light, this book argues that feminist social theory can be repaired through attention to the pioneering psychoanalytic work of Melanie Klein. It is suitable for those concerned with feminism and questions of identity in social thought.
