A must read for all women
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I really enjoyed the book. I could't put it down. It was enlightening and very interesting to see that these highly placed women are confronted with some of the same issues as other women. I began to understand why there aren't more women occupying seats of power. Very relatable and valuable for women who want to shatter the glass ceiling in their own organizations.
Inspiration for Female Politicians
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
A good book for females seeking a career in politics, as well as males looking to see how a female as Vice-President or President is inevitable in the near future. This book is not based strictly on feminist beliefs, but it does describe how female politicians feel in a political field dominated by male candidates. Interviews rage from some of the most well-known female politicians (Elizabeth Dole, Gov. Christi Whitman, Sen. Dianne Feinstein) to the lesser-known female politicians (Rep. Jennifer Dunn, Sen. Mary Landrieu). Excellent book, look forward to more like it...
Fun Summer Read in an Election Year
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
What a pleasant break to read a Washington tell-all book that's not about scandals. I'm taking it to the beach with me where I can truly savor every juicy morsel.
Uplifting and enjoyable read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
When I first picked up this book I wasn't sure if it had enough new information to hold my interest. Boy way I wrong (I'll never judge a book by its cover again). Unlike so many other inside-the-beltway tomes, this book has something important to say. It's pithy, polished and unpretentious. I'm enjoying every delicious page!
Original, Insightful and Inspriational

Eleanor and Tom have written a classic. It's about time someone has taken the role of women in high political office seriously. I'm buying copies for my daughters and nieces.
