The Kraus and Woodman may have been my idea because I read it for generals and have been recommending it to people pretty energetically since. I'm glad it worked out well for you.

I've also been recommending it as a result of Orals studying. I really like it. The series in general is good, but this one is great.

You did indeed recommend it to me back in January, but from my response I think it had already made it onto the radar some other way. LJ, alas, does not hold the clue to this one - it might have turned up at some point in the survey work for chapter 4 as a useful thing to read But Not Right Now.

The one thing I took away from 'The Female Eunuch' that challenges me ALL THE TIME was the line:

'She sacrifices what she does not have, a self.'

[the_lady_lily]

The idea of creating a self in the first place, of knowing what one's self looks like, is one I ran smack up against a couple of years ago with a vengeance, and have been working on ever since.

[yvesilena]

Wow. Can I say that from where I'm standing, your working on it is working!!

[the_lady_lily]

Perhaps from the outside. The inside is rather more complicated, I'm afraid.

When you're genuinely interested, yes, go to Martindale. But start off with something a little lighter.

Yes, I agree. It's not an entry-level book (however much it pretends to be), but if you have any interest in reception you have to read it sooner or later.

[the_lady_lily]

Agreed, although now I have read it, I'm still not entirely sure what difference it makes to what I do with reception.
