Feminist philosopher Christine Overall began writing an occasional column for the Kingston Whig-Standard in 1989, becoming a weekly columnist in 1993. In a time when women's voices, accomplishments, social and political movements are largely absent in the popular press, feminist columnists such as Christine Overall are crucial to bringing these viewpoints and activities into mainstream thought. Thinking Like A Woman is an edited selection of her columns over the past ten years. The topics touch on a wide range of issues relevant to the lives of both women and men, with a philosophical twist. As a columnist, she is committed to making philosophical thinking clear and accessible to readers from a wide variety of backgrounds. Good philosophy engages the heart as well as the mind, our feelings as well as our thoughts. Overall believes philosophical thinking is for everyone. From this perspective she writes of the importance of family and family histories; the ongoing struggle for control of women's bodies and reproductive rights; the experience of being an academic; current and controversial debates in feminism, sexuality and the media. Her columns touch on personal and social morality, religious beliefs, parenting and raising children, sexual orientation, education, public policy, aging and gender equality in the workplace. At a time when western culture seems to be tilting to the right, these columns provide a welcome and progressive outlook on important social and political issues that shape our lives. Thinking Like A Woman is Overall's contribution towards creating social change. Thinking Like a Women: Personal Life and Political Ideas Overall, Christine, Sumach Press<
