By weaving discussions of the personal and professional writings of Ruth Benedict (1887-1948), this work offers a portrait of a woman who overcame the barriers of sexism to become one of the most compelling intellectual figures in twentieth-century American life. It defends her humanistic approach to anthropology and considers her important works.
