Heart of Flesh: A Feminist Spirituality for Women and Men
Publisher: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Co.
Author: Joan D. Chittister
Year: 1998

Description:

The author writes about three basic positions.  First, women must define themselves, not have definitions assigned by men.  Second, "...any form of dominance which leads to exclusion or underdevelopment must be exposed, critiqued, and recast...." Third, "spirituality that does not release the feminine dimension in both women and men leaves them half souled."
