Customer Reviews

This is a wonderful book that shouldn't be out of print.

This is the first (and hopefully not the last) book that profiles African women leaders. It does a wonderful job of turning American attention to the strength and innovation of African women and provides a contrast to the general reporting on Africa as an overpopulated, famine-stricken, genocidal, and patriarchal continent.
