“The Feminist Time Forgot” Susan Faludi, New Yorker. Shulamith Firestone rejected her Orthodox upbringing and authoritarian father  to become one of the leaders of late 1960s radical feminism.  But her father's death reduced her to insanity.

The Futurist George Dvorsky, io9. “Pregnancy is barbaric,” wrote Shulamith Firestone (italics hers, indignation ours).  But she was as much da Vinci as de Beauvoir, predicting artificial wombs, donor-sperm banks, even computer schooling.
