Synopsis
InBelief, Bodies, and Being, twelve distinguished contributors present diverse and illuminating viewpoints on feminist issues of embodiement, materialism, and agency from feminist and postmodernist philosophical perspectives. Beginnning by positing non-traditional ways of approaching ontological concerns (through the acknowledgement of agential realties and the usage of an ontology of tropes), the volume concludes by addressing highly specific, culturally constituted types of postmodern bodies (monstrous, anorexic, and pharmaceutical bodies).

Review
These essays range from a discussion of the classical figure of Diotima to the contemporary work of Judith Butler, from reflections on Niels Bohr's philosophy-physics to reflections on monstrous bodies. The authors reflect on the multiplicity of bodies, which has been a core issue for feminist theory during the last fifty years. Belief, Bodies and Being provides English-speaking readers with access to work by contemporary European feminist philosophers - from France, Germany, Great Britain, and the Netherlands - in addition to work by North American authors, illustrating how combining classical training in philosophy with current feminist debates brings new light to bear on both philosophy and feminist theory. (Robin May Schott, Senior Researcher, Danish Institute for International Studies)
