Reviews

"This is a must-have book for women in religious studies from undergraduate to emerita. A Guide for Women in Religion is filled with vital information and resources for women along the career spectrum and also a fine resource book for all who mentor them. Once again the editors of this new edition have kept it a fresh and relevant guide for those sorting out the academic maze. Excellent!" - Emilie M. Townes, Dean, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Professor, Womanist Ethics and Society, Vanderbilt University, USA

"A Guide for Women in Religion is not just new and improved; it's classic and essential. With wisdom that arises from collaborative sharing, the guide meets the challenges of today's religious studies landscape with attention to how diversities limit access, the impact of technology, and openness to expanding academic circles that include a variety of professions. From graduate school through many career decisions, the Guide provides invaluable advice. A must have on every shelf!" - Kate M. Ott, Assistant Professor, Christian Social Ethics, Drew University, USA

"A Guide for Women in Religion offers wise advice and good counsel, with a warm and vibrant sense of humor. The revised edition reflects important changes facing women in the academy today - from navigating an academic career as a woman with a disability to grappling with the changing landscape for contingent faculty. An invaluable resource, and a great gift to all of us in the profession!" - Rabbi Julia Watts Belser, Assistant Professor, Georgetown University, USA
