From the Publisher
Praise for QUINTESSENCE
"This is Mary Daly's masterpiece. In Western tradition, her only near-equal is the poet William Blake. Daly is a philosopher/artist of great strength and grace." --Andrea Dworkin
"This latest explosion by the principal progenitor of radical feminism is sure to infuriate those she has already enraged and endear her more deeply to those who will hear within her frantic, fierce--and often funny--manifesto a terrible and timely word. In this highly charged text, she looks back and forward at the same time and issues an urgent summons" 'Biophiliacs unite!' No one who worries about the present direction of genetics and cloning can afford to miss this important book." --Harvey Cox, author of Fire from Heaven
