The New Catholic Feminism Theology, Gender Theory and Dialogue

"The centrality of gendered, sexual bodies to the life of faith and traditional theology's repression of such have long been the focus of feminist theology. Beattie's book takes the conversation to new levels with her exploration of the crucial role of the psychological - desire, pleasure, fear, terror - in the workings of faith and theology." - Mary McClintock Fulkerson, Associate Professor of Theology, Divinity School, Duke University
