Armed with reams of new research, she details how women struggled for power and instead got stuck in an endless quest for perfection.

Both deeply personal and statistically rich, Wonder Women is Spar's story and the story of our culture. It is cultural history at its best, and a road map for the future."--Amazon.com | |
