About this Book

The author believes that significant reductions in the army are possible because effective power projection can be accomplished by the air force and navy. Much of what he says bears some truth, but beware the lessons of history: wars can be fought by the navy and air power--they are won by the grunt. Cloth edition, $34.95. Penley (English and film studies, U. of Rochester) analyzes the primary movements that have shaped the field: the conjunction of feminism, film theory, and psychoanalysis, and the inherent debates surrounding the politics of women and representation.
