Summary: 

In article <5077@utzoo.UUCP> laura@utzoo.UUCP (Laura Creighton) writes:

In Gyn/Ecology by Mary Daly a clear line of evolution is shown from the
burning of millions of women in Europe, through the female mutilations of
the 19th Century, up to the lobotomies and shock treatments of today.

In all my reading of net.women and net.books, I have never seen mention
of this work.  Reading this book is like reading about the holocaust--if
you believe that what you are reading is true, then the only sane reaction
is outrage.
