Reviews

"Offers a big overview of roles and contemporary issues facing African women over the whole continent. An important compendium of the ways that women have had power and were critical to historical transformations in Africa throughout history."--Jan Bender Shetler, Goshen College

"Stands alone for its comprehensive content and multidisciplinary approach. Readers will appreciate the significant amount of scholarship on and by African women, the evolution of that literature and its dynamic relationship with intellectual currents, and social, economic, and cultural changes on the continent and internationally."--Judith A. Byfield, Cornell University

"This fresh and exciting book presents African women through time and across space in their full complexity and with their full agency. A must-read for anyone studying gender, women, or girls in Africa."--Jennie E. Burnet, Georgia State University
