Synopsis
This bestselling pioneering anthology brings together a diverse group of twenty-six feminist writers, therapists and academics. Their work represents a beginning effort to capture the experience of contemporary American lesbians. Writing about their own lives as well as the lives of the women they have observed and counseled, the authors explore four topics central to building a lesbian psychology: identity, relationships, community, and therapy.

Review
"This long-overdue recognition of lesbian diversity is not the only reason to celebrate the appearance of this book, which comprises 20 essays on topics which include bisexuality, alcoholism, incest, motherhood, eating disorders, sexuality and sex therapy... It is also the first volume with a psychological perspective that does not consider lesbianism to be pathological." -- San Francisco Sentinel
