Description
This is the essential reference work on young feminism today, capturing the diversity and excitement of third wavers and their issues, visions, attitudes, culture, writings, theories, and more.

Reviews:
-"If you're a Second Waver who hasn't kept up with Third Wave developments and publishing or someone who has limited knowledge of feminism in any guise, the Encyclopedia is a great place to start exploring the phenomenon. If you know it well, it is a handy compendium for reference." —Feminist Collections
-"High schools and colleges with programs that emphasize contemporary feminism will find this work concise and current, providing significant information that isn't found in other reference works that one might already have....[w]hat is unique (the format, selected entries, and the thematic groupings of entries and primary sources) does, by just a bit, justify adding this work to one's collection, be that a library collection or a personal library." —Reference & User Services Quarterly
-"Of interest to undergraduate and advanced high school students as well as the interested reader, this two-volume reference provides over 200 entries and an entire volume of primary sources that demonstrate and define the inclusive issues and thought of contemporary feminism." —Reference & Research Book News
-"Third-wave feminism--that is, the evolution of the women's movement since the second-wave feminism of Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan--began in 1991 with Anita Hill's appearance at the Senate confirmation hearings on Clarence Thomas's appointment to the Supreme Court. This set is designed to showcase feminism's new issues and the women driving these philosophies forward....[t]his set is recommended primarily for exhaustive collections in Women's Studies and Pop Culture." —Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin
