This book traces a journey through feminism and Christian ethics which has been very much my own. I remember so clearly thinking, in my early feminist awareness, that really, if we would all simply obey Kant's categorical imperative and treat women as ends-in-themselves, the matter, as far as ethical inquiry was concerned, could be closed. Making this claim, however, far from settling things, seemed to open a gate into entire areas of inquiry that had not yet been touched. To undertake a closer exploration of the territory that then lay before me has been to enter places of great turmoil, in which whatever one says is offensive, of great confusion, in which it is difficult to get one's bearings, and yet of great potential, in which we might be able to discover something better to say. I have thus lived through each of the ways of feminist thinking sketched here, and have found, within each movement and writer, insights to value and criticisms to bear. What I offer here is both a description of that journey so far, with significant markers along the way, and an anticipation of what now seem to me to be the threads that will guide our steps into the future, even as we weave them in our continuing debates.
