Reviews

"... an eloquent testimonial to the seventeen autobiographers themselves. The autobiographies are enhanced by the insights of O'Connell's penetrating analyses and synthesis of personal and professional commonalities and differences in these women's lives and experiences. The women's eminence is made more evident by Russo's informative discussion of the societal context and its relationship to development of the field and women's contributions to it...an energizing source of pride and inspiration to all readers."
