Reception
The book was met by a positive reception. A review in Contemporary Sociology concluded that the book "provides a needed addition to the growing literature on the political woman."[1]
Diane Kincaid of the Western Political Quarterly wrote that the volume "will stand as a milestone in marking the shift from description and prescription to empirical explanation and theoretical development." Kincaid added that the section on African American women" succeeds in vividly challenging the easy subsumption of "black women" into "all women" as a political behavior group."[2]
Jane S. Jaquette of Occidental College calls the book a "welcome addition to the sparse literature of the field," concluding that it is an "essential anthology."[3]
The volume was reviewed in Social Work, Canadian Journal of Political Science, and Polity.[4][5][6]
