|  | Passionate Enlightment by Miranda Shaw
The crowning cultural achievement of medieval India, Tantric Buddhism is known in the West primarily for the sexual practices of its adherents, who strive to transform erotic passion into spiritual ecstasy. Historians of religion have long held that the enlightenment thus attempted was for men only, and that women in the movement were at best marginal and subordinated and at worst degraded and exploited. Miranda Shaw argues to the contrary, presenting extensive new evidence of the outspoken and independent female founders of the Tantric movement and their creative role in shaping its distinctive vision of gender relations and sacred sexuality.

 | Pure Lust by Mary Daly
Mary Daly is one of the most exciting and imaginative feminist thinkers of our time. In this groundbreaking feminist text, she extends the deviant philosophy developed in her classic GYN/ECOLOGY, and draws from her WEBSTER'S' FIRST NEW INTERGALACTIC WICEDARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE in order to deconstruct/reconstruct our speech and expose the assumptions behind our thought processes. She uncovers the patriarchal reversals that have made us the inheritors of a belief system of the absurd, exhorting us to break out of the guilt and fear in which the male sadosociety entraps us. A work of flamboyant brilliance. AUTHOR: Mary Daly
