Why should we think about the home? Most would agree that it is central to children's development-a healthy, stable, and hopefully loving environment where they can prepare for adulthood. But for women, the duties and expectations bound up with life at home have historically often meant stunted development, confinement to the home and domestic work, subordination to a man who goes in and out of the home freely. While societal advancements have helped to close this gap for some, these problems endure for many. The writings of women philosophers, some going back many centuries, reveal insights on these challenges that deserve close study. In No Place Like Home, Sandrine Berg鋊 calls attention to women philosophers' ideas and arguments, starting in antiquity and continuing into the twenty-first century. Through their writings, she examines the concept of the home in all its historical richness and variety, thus reinstating the home as a philosophical problem, worthy of deep inquiry. Berg鋊

The #MeToo revelations put a twenty-first-century stamp on the age-old story of women's mistreatment in Hollywood. Karen McNally edits a collection focused on examining and revising film history in the aftermath of the women's stories, past and present, that have come to light.
