Dry but informational

This book tallies the results of a large cross-denominational study of Protestant clergywomen. The study dates from 1981, and much has changed since then, so in some ways it's a little dated. Also being a formal study, it's rather dry and heavy on the math. However it's chock-full of information about the experience of female clergy, and not all of it is dated by any means. If the subject interests you, go ahead and read the book, you'll find it interesting.
