Review:

'The Encyclopedia of Feminist Theories represents an important contribution to feminist studies and scholarship and would be a valuable addition to reference collections in academic and research libraries, particularly those in institutions with women's studies programs. It also would be useful in large public libraries and special libraries in the humanities and social sciences.' - American Reference Books Annual 2000 Edition

'Academic libraries supporting Women's Studies programs should have it on their list for serious consideration. - Against the Grain
