I can t think of a single person who wouldn t benefit from reading it Observer Bindel is a rock star of second-wave feminism . . . an important, courageous book The Times Bindel delivers a robust call to arms in every chapter . . . this book could not be timelier . . . As a young feminist who has finally seen the light, I consider it essential reading The CriticFeminism is a quest for the liberation of women from patriarchy. Feminism strives for a world in which women are not oppressed. Feminism prioritises exposing and ending male violence towards women and girls.This is Julie Bindel s feminism, a definition born of 40 years at the front line of the feminist movement. Why then, she asks, is feminism the only social justice movement in the world that is expected to prioritise every other issue before pursuing its own objective of women s liberation? Why does the movement appear to be moving backwards, accommodating the rights and feelings of men and leaving women in the cold? Women make up half the global population yet why is feminism still treated as a minority movement?In this searing and ground-breaking book, Bindel deconstructs the many pervasive myths about feminism - Do women really want what men have? Can men be feminists? Are women liberated by sexual violation? - assessing whether feminism has achieved its goals and debunking theories that second wave feminism is irrelevant and one-dimensional.Bindel shines a light on the most important issues, including pornography, sexual violence and prostitution. Drawing on Bindel s own experiences, as well as countless interviews with women and girls of all ages and backgrounds (as well as contributions from commentators such as Gloria Steinem and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie), Feminism for Women presents a clear-sighted view of why feminism is a proud social movement that every woman on the planet benefits from.The invisible forces of misogyny affect us all.This book is a call to arms to reclaim feminism for all women.Only together can we resist and overcome.

From the author of the self-help hit, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, this essential guide offers daily, practical ways to help you heal the invisible wounds caused by immature parents, nurture self-awareness, trust your emotions, improve relationships, and stop putting others needs ahead of your own.If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you probably still struggle with anger, sadness, resentment, or shame. As a child, your emotional needs were not met, your feelings were dismissed, and you likely took on adult levels of responsibility in an effort to compensate for your parent s behavior. Somewhere along the way, you lost your sense of self. And without this strong sense of self, you may feel like your own well-being isn t valuable.In this compassionate guide-written just for you, not them-you ll find tips and tools to help you set boundaries with others, honor and validate your emotions, and thrive in the face of life s challenges. You ll discover how to protect yourself from hurtful behavior, stop making excuses for others limitations, forge healthier relationships, and feel more confident in your life. Most importantly, you ll learn how to stop putting others needs before your own, and manage daily stressors with competence, clarity, and optimism.Self-care means honoring and respecting the self. But when you grow up with emotionally immature parents, you are taught that setting limits is selfish and uncaring. You are taught to seek approval instead of authenticity in relationships. And you are taught that empathy and emotional awareness are liabilities, rather than assets. But there s another way to go through life-one in which you can take care of yourself, first and foremost.Let this book guide you toward a new way of being.

Profound, angry, and tender all at once VIRGINIA FEITO, author of MRS MARCH Fascinating and very compelling. ZOE VENDITOZZI, co-author of HOW TO KILL A WITCH A moving story of desperation, violence and survival HELEN LEWIS, author of DIFFICULT WOMENThe women of Nagyrév are desperate. They re abused by their husbands. They are feeding their newborns to livestock.At the turn of the 20th century, in the village of Nagyrév, Hungary, midwife Zsuzsanna Fazekas was more than a caretaker - she was a confidante. She helped poor women give birth; she assisted them with abortions; and she listened. Their stories were the same: husbands who drank, who beat them, who made their lives unbearable.In response, Auntie Zsuzsi asked one question: Why bother with them? Her solution was arsenic. Soon, women began slipping this concoction, made by dissolving flypaper in water, into their husbands porridge, stews, and brandy. And over the next twenty years, the quiet village became the epicenter of one of the deadliest poisoning epidemics of the 20th century - according to some estimates, up to 300 people in the region were murdered.Why did they do it? How did these murders spin out of control? How did these women get away with their crimes for two decades?In The Women Are Not Fine, journalist Hope Reese pieces together archival newspapers, court documents, police records, and the vital work of historians, sociologists, and psychologists, diving deep into the truth behind this extraordinary event. Her findings serve as a stark warning: when women in a community are pushed to the brink, the consequences reverberate through history.The Women Are Not Fine is more than a true crime story.

National Bestseller featured by Good Morning America, NPR s Code Switch, The New York Times, and The Guardian Realistic and trustworthy -- InStyle This isn’t just another self-help book. It gives us a clear-eyed look at the way social systems drain our energy, and a concrete set of principles to rely on as we declare independence from these systems. —Martha Beck, New York Times bestselling author of The Way of Integrity This book is for anyone who’s ever removed a relaxing sheet mask only to realize it hasn’t transformed you so much as your trash can.” —Jessica DeFino, The UnpublishableFrom women’s mental health specialist and New York Times contributor Pooja Lakshmin, MD, comes a long-overdue reckoning with the contradictions of the wellness industry and a paradigm-shifting program for practicing real self-care that will empower, uplift, and maybe even start a revolution.You may have noticed that it’s nearly impossible to go even a couple days without coming across the term self-care. A word that encompasses any number of lifestyle choices and products—from juice cleanses to yoga workshops to luxury bamboo sheets—self-care has exploded in our collective consciousness as a panacea for practically all of women’s problems. Board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Pooja Lakshmin finds this cultural embrace of self-care incomplete at best and manipulative at worst. Fixing your troubles isn’t simple as buying a new day planner or signing up for a meditation class. These faux self-care practices keep us looking outward—comparing ourselves with others or striving for a certain type of perfection. Even worse, they exonerate an oppressive social system that has betrayed women and minorities.Real self-care, in contrast, is an internal, self-reflective process that involves making difficult decisions in line with our values, and when we practice it, we shift our relationships, our workplaces, and even our broken systems.In Real Self-Care, Lakshmin helps readers understand what a real practice of caring for yourself could—and does—look like. Using case studies from her practice, clinical research, and the down-to-earth style that she s become known for, Lakshmin provides a step-by-step program for real and sustainable change and solace. Packed with actionable strategies to deal with common problems, Real Self-Care is a complete roadmap for women to set boundaries and move past guilt, treat themselves with compassion, get closer to themselves, and assert their power. The result—having ownership over one’s own life— is nothing less than a personal and social revolution.

Learn to balance and blend self-care and care for others through we-care, a science-backed compassion training that enhances personal and social well-being, promotes healthy boundaries, and offers a path of healing and growth.Helping professionals and empaths commonly find themselves burning out, overextended in their care for others. Yet few people feel there’s too much compassion in our society, and an overly strong focus on self-care can lead to unskillfulness when faced with interpersonal challenges and a lack of responsiveness to systemic social issues. The emerging science and practice of we-care embraces and transcends the principles of self-care in order to emphasize the inherently social nature of care. From this perspective, care is not a zero-sum game that will inevitably lead to self-indulgence for some and burnout for others, but rather an inherently social force that drives mutually beneficial outcomes. Yet we-care is more than a concept—it is a practical framework and set of tools to offer a more expansive view of care. Compassion researcher and teacher Jordan Quaglia guides you through questions such as, “Do you ever feel the urge to take away other people’s pain and discomfort, no matter the potential personal costs?” and “Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the pain and suffering of the world or by specific challenging situations?” to discover your care tendencies, explore their strengths and weaknesses, and find a more balanced way to express your innate sense of compassion for yourself, others, and the world. As you re exposed to cutting-edge scientific research, practical insights, and personal stories, you’ll discover your own unique balance of self-care and care for others across diverse situations. On this meaningful journey, you can positively transform your health, relationships, work, and every facet of your life.
