What brings people together to find hope and solidarity? What do we owe each other as citizens and comrades?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eQuestions of care, intimacy, education, meaningful work, and social engagement lie at the core of our ability to understand the world and its possibilities for human flourishing. In \u003ci\u003eLean On Me\u003c\/i\u003e feminist thinker Lynne Segal goes in search of hope in her own life and in the world around her. She finds it entwined in our intimate commitments to each other and our shared collective endeavours. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSegal calls this shared dependence 'radical care'. In recounting from her own life the moments of motherhood, and of being on the front line of second-wave feminism, she draws upon lessons from more than half a century of engagement in left feminist politics, with its underlying commitment to building a more egalitarian and nurturing world. The personal and the political combine in this rallying cry to transform radically how we approach education, motherhood, and our everyday vulnerabilities of disability, ageing, and enhanced needs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOnly by confronting head-on these different forms of interdependence and care can we change the way we think about the environment and learn to struggle -- together --against impending climate catastrophe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynne Segal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 180429294X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781804292945\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/14\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.60w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/04\/2023","brand":"Lynne Segal","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44121853001983,"sku":"9781804292945","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a091cb1-6ac9-45f9-98f2-fde5069bfc06.jpg?v=1687421809","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lean-on-me-lynne-segal-9781804292945","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
