Typology of feminism

So, in undergraduate textbooks and so on, you tend to see feminism taught as being one of "three types": liberal feminism, socialist feminism, radical feminism. Does anyone have any idea where this typology came from? Rough date, origin(ator), etc.?

Thanks for this: it's a classification I've come across again and again over the years, and now I'm about to pass it on, I began to wonder where it had first come from. It sounds like it has at least roots in the 70s.
