<p>Luminous essays about the experience of being female accompany exceptional images of the global family of women, captured by some of the world's great photojournalists. Carol Gilligan, professor of Gender Studies at Harvard University; Byllye Avery, winner of the MacARthur Foundation Genius Award and a member of the NIH's office of women's health; Chief Wilma Mankiller, the first woman Chief of the Cherokee Nation; and Letty Cottin Pogrebin, author of twelve books on feminist issues; these writers have contributed essays on girlhood, adolescence, womanhood, and maturity from the feminist perspective. Photographs from the Magnum Cooperative, which represents Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalists, are in color and black-and-white. Authors' royalties from the sale of this book will support the Ms. Foundation for Women, which supports day care centers, safe homes for victims of domestic abuse, homeless shelters, womens' health, education, and many other programs for women.</p>
