Philosophy professor Christina Sommers has exposed a disturbing development: how a group of zealots, claiming to speak for all women, are promoting a dangerous new agenda that threatens our most cherished ideals and sets women against men in all spheres of life. In case after case, Sommers shows how these extremists have propped up their arguments with highly questionable but well-funded research, presenting inflammatory and often inaccurate information and stifling any semblance of free and open scrutiny. Trumpeted as orthodoxy, the resulting "findings" on everything from rape to domestic abuse to economic bias to the supposed crisis in girls' self-esteem perpetuate a view of women as victims of the "patriarchy".

Who Stole Feminism? is a call to arms that will enrage or inspire, but cannot be ignored.

Should have used a younger sounding narrator. This one sounds like a stuffy, annoying, school mistress, and it makes me switch off despite the content.

Awful narrator

I am amazed at the quality of this book and all researched that the author did to put this book together.
Probably if I have read this book a few years ago I'd be angry knowing what has really been behind the gender terrorists aka gender feminists.
A lot of people, including me a few years ago, are feminist, without understanding what is behind it. I've completely changed my mind aroud feminism recently and this book helps me have a conversation around it.
No one in is right mind would be against the first waive, the original feminism.
These gender feminists are corrupt and have brought a lot of misery to women.
I'll be recommending this book to everybody I know.
So glad I read it!

Fantastic and recommended! Everybody should read i

Sommers is witty, smart and does the leg work to back up her assertions and critiques. I had seen interviews but it was nice to have more time with her ideas.

A concise dismantling of a complex deception

Telling it like it is. The only misguided, optimistic view in this beacon of common sense was that radical feminists would eventually run out of steam through lack of societal support.. unfortunately she didn’t see the internet coming.
