Hilde Lindemann is Emerita Professor of Philosophy at Michigan State University. A Fellow of the Hastings Center and a past president of the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities, her ongoing research interests are in feminist bioethics, feminist ethics, the ethics of families, and the social construction of persons and their identities. Her most recent book is Holding and Letting Go: The Social Practice of Personal Identities (Oxford University Press, 2016), which builds on her earlier Damaged Identities, Narrative Repair (Cornell University Press, 2001). With James Lindemann Nelson, she also wrote The Patient in the Family: An Ethics of Medicine and Families. She is the former editor of The Hastings Center Report as well as of Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy. She was the coeditor of Rowman & Littlefield's Feminist Constructions series and the general coeditor (with James Lindemann Nelson) of the Reflective Bioethics series at Routledge.
Hilde Lindemann has updated her classic, readable text with timely
new sections on currently pressing topics and concepts such as
intersectionality, sexual harassment, and microaggressions.
Lindemann continues to be one of the most engaging voices in
feminist philosophy. This new edition is an ideal text for today's
students of feminist philosophy, as well as an important
contribution to the field in its own right.

Outstanding! With characteristic clarity and insight Lindemann
provides a valuable introduction to feminist ethics which is both
rigorous and highly accessible.
