Germaine Greer : untamed shrew

An examination of the life and work of the feminist Germaine Greer. The author's goal is not to present a conventional biography, but rather to focus on why Greer was different from other second-wave feminists, why she could be so contradictory and why, regardless of this, the net impact of her influence has been generally positive. She focuses on Greer's book The Female Eunuch, the book that the author feels secured Greer's place in the history of feminism.
