Review:

""Women's Reality "is one of the few books that is supportive of women's changing roles without putting men down. It allows men and women to see each other as friends rather than enemies."--Jed Diamond, author of "Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places""A brilliant dissection of the psycho-sexual differences between male and female experience. It should be required reading in every women's studies course."--Rosemary Ruether, author of "Women-Church""Superb....The power of naming is an awesome one. It has been held almost exclusively by men. In our time, women are increasingly reclaiming this power in order to name their own truths. For this very fundamental task, "Women's Reality" is a superb tool. It is conceptually clear, insightful throughout--and kind. Men need this as much as women do."--Bonnie Kreps, author of "Subversive Thoughts, Authentic Passions"
