Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
Barriers to professional jobs for women are crumbling; help clear away the rubble and open aspirational paths for the girls you teach. Laurie Lindop's "Dynamic Modern Women" series introduces eight champions of equality, among them are Elisabeth Glaser who helped establish the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the tireless crusader for children's rights, Marian Wright Edelman. Scientists and Doctors, another volume in the series, (ISBN: 0-8050-4166-4) features Nobel prize winners Rita Levi-Montalcini, discoverer of nerve growth factor, and Rosalyn Yalow, who developed a process to measure virtually any substance in the body.
School Library Journal
Gr 6 UpThe women in this book have worked for, written about, spoken in support of, legislated, and fought for the rights of many and various groups of people. Profiles include Marian Wright Edelman, Elizabeth Glaser, Wilma Mankiller, Maggie Kuhn, Margarethe Cammermeyer, Myrlie Evers-Williams, Delores Huerta, Patricia Ireland, Vilma Martinez, and Eleanor Holmes Norton. Lindop typically includes an account of the subject's early years, insight into what shaped the individual's interests, a history of her activism, and a fairly thorough discussion of the issues surrounding her fight. By going beyond the standard biographical information into discussions of politics, history, and social issues, this valuable resource increases students' understanding of these individuals. Each profile is accompanied by a full-page, full-color photograph. Good for reports or to stimulate classroom discussion; great list for further reading.Rebecca O'Connell, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh
