― Julia M. Klein, Forward

“We learn a great deal about some spectacularly brave and innovative women who transgressed traditional boundaries to break new ground.”
― Elaine Margolin, Jerusalem Post

― Francine Klagsbrun, author of Lioness

“Nadell has taken on a big job in covering such a multidimensional, important subject. Nadell does it in informative and succinct style, and the result is a readable, valuable text.”
