Opis

Radical Visionaries highlights and honours those women who served as trailblazing pioneers in the development of feminist psychotherapy. Many of their contributions span their entire careers as they fought the many forms of systemic oppressions from their intersecting identities, including patriarchy, sexism, racism, classism, and heterosexism. This book was originally published as a special issue of Women & Therapy.
