Carol Colatrella argues that popular novels, short stories, and television shows produced in the United States and Britain - from \u003ci\u003eLittle Dorrit\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eIola Leroy\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eCall the Midwife\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Closer\u003c\/i\u003e - foster acceptance of feminism by optimistically illustrating its prospects and promises. Scholars, students, and general readers will appreciate the book's sweeping introduction to a host of concerns in feminist theory while applying a gender lens to a wide range of literature and media from the past two centuries. In exploring how individuals and communities might reduce bias and discrimination and ensure gender equity, these fictions serve as both a measure and a means of feminism's progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarol Colatrella \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of Literature and Codirector of the Center for Women, Science, and Technology at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
