Breaking the Patriarchal Code
Louise Gouëffic, 1996, Knowledge, Ideas and Trends, Manchester, CT, USA


In Breaking the Patriarchal Code: The Linguistic Basis of Sexual Bias Louise Gouëffic lists 10,000 words with the linguistic formulas and techniques used to embed bias in language, exposing its subtle, hidden agenda that promotes the idea of male dominance. This book also involves the issues of justice, equality, critical thinking, and the creation of a better world.

"This is an imaginative and creative work. The analysis is profound and thoughtful. The implications are far more radical than other publications on the gender bias in language. No one who has given these matters serious thought can fail to be persuaded that the task of creating an unbiased language form has just begun."
