From Ann Crittenden, author of The Price of Motherhood: Why the Most Important Job in the World is Still the Least Valued: “This rich anthology documents the modern mother’s movement in all of its diversity. It is must reading for anyone interested in the explosion of activism aimed at the empowerment of women as mothers. Mamazons, outlaw mothers, strategic essentialists, on-line pragmatists, lesbian theorists, and more than 80 organizations representing every class, creed and color of mother – they are all here. If you want a clear picture of 21st century matrocentric feminism, look no further – this is it.”
