Being yourself
The essays, nine of the 13 were previously published between 1987 and 2003, explore how to live a life that expresses one's own unique personality and distinctive values. Coverage includes autonomous action and its bearing on gender, women's subordination, and women's resistance to demeaning cultural norms and sexist institutional strictures: the multi-dimensionality of the autonomous agent: the self and agency in specifically moral contexts: agency in hostile social contexts: and how the value of cultural perpetuation can conflict with individual liberty and how such conflicts can be addressed.

Gender in the mirror
Harmful, culturally prevalent imagery of feminine sexuality, beauty, and motherhood constrains women's self-determination. Gender in the Mirror proposes alternative imagery of feminine sexuality, beauty, and motherhood and advances an account of feminist discursive politics that takes on the challenge of neutralizing patriarchal imagery.
