Presentation copy inscribed and signed by the author to fellow writer Cai Emmons on first free endpaper.
From Homer's Odyssey to U.S. elections, women who have dared to aspire to or gain power have been treated as "freakish androgynes." For anyone who has heard fellow voters opine - "I don't know, there's just something I don't like about her" - this manifesto will resonate familiarly. Ms. Emmons has pencil-highlighted a few of her favorite passages, for instance: "What we need is some old fashioned consciousness-raising about what we mean by the 'voice of authority' and how we've come to construct it."
