DESCRIPTION:
Great books! Wonderfully informative Great books! Wonderfully informative. I may not always agree with the premises posed, but more often than not I found this to be a very useful series. I majored in American History and without a generous dose of a female perspective such a study is simply incomplete.
"I like Women and Power because of its unifying theme, balance, helpful abstracts, consistently high-quality selections, and moderate cost. The essays retain the flavor of professional research while making the work accessible to a general undergraduate audience. My students feel motivated and accomplished when they have an opportunity to read 'real' scholarly articles." — Nancy Page Fernandez, California State University, Northridge
