Summary

A multicultural collection of third-wave feminist voices, this book reveals how current feminist religious scholars from around the world are integrating social justice and activism into their scholarship and pedagogy. Harris and Ott divide the collection into three sections, exploring the contributors' identities as both feminist scholars and activists, what led them to the ministry as scholars, and how their scholarship is shaped by faith.
