Feminism and the Mastery of Nature explains the relation between ecofeminism and other feminist theories. Plumwood provides aphilosophically informed account of the relation of women and nature, and shows how relating male domination to the domination of nature is important and yet remains a dilemma for women.

’Appropriation’, ’bricolage’, ’recording’, ’scavenging’ - a scenario of image piracy has provided the buzzwords of pop cultural theory for most of the 1980s. while programmes for political action in culture have increasingly taken the form of a romance of buccaneering, the more sedate theoretical disputes about postmodernism have begun to generate a myth that feminists, or even women, have so far said little or nothing about one of the most action-packed debates of the decade. Taking her title from a 1969 film by Nelly Kaplan, Meaghan Morris cons
