I really enjoyed this essay collection which prominently features intersectionality, the co-opting of feminism by capitalism, and why feminism benefits men, as well as a little bit of history about the movement. I don't think it's a feminism starter book though, and it helps to have a little bit of background in the movement before tackling this one.
