"bell hooks has always written in a very readable style, eschewing footnotes because people in her hometown told her they were put off by books with footnotes. This time, she set out to write a book that explains feminism, particularly for a mainstream audience….certainly she has once again made the point that feminists need to try to reach women of all races and classes." —Carol Anne Douglas, Off Our Backs (2001)

Praise for Feminism Is for Everybody:Dan O. Nyaronga
The text is well written and the materials are up-to-date. The strength of the text is on case formulation and it’s the best that I have seen in the market.Deborah Harris O’Brien
I thought the appendices were the most unique part of the book. The “Systems of classification” appendix, which specifically includes information related to ADA, IDEA, and section 504 is crucial for those students who will be working in a school setting. The “guidelines for interpretation of test scores and assessment information” is handy for all students who will be providing assessment services, regardless of the setting.Jennifer Connolly
The Casebook is an excellent way to introduce students to the real-life presentation of clinical disorders by way of actual case material. The developmental perspective is a strength of this book and distinguishes it from others available in the field.Roger A. Olsen
The case studies are thorough and the questions at the end of chapters are very helpful.
