Abstract
This essay offers a rhetorical critique of the five editions of the Boston Women's Health Book Collective's [BWHBC] Our Bodies, Ourselves. The author argues that the BWHBC's books are grounded in an epistemology that privileges women's personal experiences, enabling the collective to participate in and encourage the continuing development of feminist approaches to women's health‐care needs. Moreover, the author argues that collective member's use of “feminine style” in their texts follows necessarily from their epistemological assumptions.
