The main work in this book is "A Reformulation of Dialectical Materialism", which incorporates feminist theory into the traditional Marxist presentation of the science of dialectical materialism. An appendix to the main work discusses the question of whether nature exhibits dialectical development. Three recent additional essays complete this book. "9/11 and Nationalism" concludes that if and when fascism comes to the United States, it will be on the basis of nationalism rather than simply white supremacy and conservative Christianity. "Relation of Progressives to the Democratic Party" and "A New Approach to Supporting Progressive Electoral Candidates" concern current electoral work.
