Groundbreaking and inspiring
I am a 23 yr. old woman reading a book that was written in 1963 for and about women. I thought this book would help me learn more about women's history, but it was a huge eye-opener and a complete inspiration. The chapters in this book still describe me as a young American woman almost 40 yrs. later. Every woman and man should read this book. It has completely opened my eyes.

Well-researched, Winsome, and Gospel-proclaiming!
As a faithful reader of Carolyn McCulley's (excellent!) blog, RadicalWomanhood (http://solofemininity.blogs.com/), I had high expectations for this book. Carolyn met them all with ease. - Her research (and citations) demonstrate her commitment to journalistic integrity and her years of experience as a writer and editor. It was refreshing and informative to read actual historical information ...
The Feminine Face of God: The Unfolding of the Sacred in Women
11 reviews
Sherry Ruth Anderson
Bantam
, 1992
Still Timely after 16 Years!
Still worth reading for anyone interested in understanding the complexities and nuances of women's spiritual journeys. A broad range of female spiritual experiences are covered that cross different ages; religious traditions (interpersed with thoughtful reports of how Christian women engage the Feminine Face of God); racial and ethnic backgrounds; marital/family status; and even region of the ...
FEMININE MISTAKE, THE: ARE WE GIVING UP TOO MUCH?

Leslie Bennetts
Voice
, 2007
A must-read for all American women in or out of the workplace.
As a working mom myself, I actually loved reading this book, probably first and foremost because it re-affirmed my choice to work outside of the home. It would put a huge burden on my husband were I to leave my job, for the cost of healthcare alone for a family of four. We make decent money, but raising two active boys, who are involved in team sports and other activities that cost money, is not ...
The Gnostic Scriptures: History, Theology, and the Sacred Feminine

Mary and Mary and Sophia
The texts are well rendered and very understandable, but the book offered more than just a good translation. I was very please with the additional information on Sophia, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Jesus. This book gives historical data on the evolution of their places in the church. It also connects the dots in a trail that begins with Sophia (The Gnostic entity that carried the divine ...
Feminine Appeal

Carolyn Mahaney
Crossway Books
, 2004
Biblical, inspiring, and fun to read!
After reading quite a few books on biblical femininity, Feminine Appeal is the best I have ever encountered. Mahaney faithfully explained what real Godly womanhood is and supported every major point with multiple, soundly-interpreted Words of God. As opposed to some other books that incorporates the cultural image of housewives, Mahaney actually focused on the Truth, and not on her own ...

C. G. Jung

Jung on the Feminine
This volume is a selection of writings from the Collected Works of Carl Jung (1875-1961), a selection focusing on the "feminine". In Jung's psychology, the "feminine" can mean several things, including: (1) the consciousness of real females; (2) an aspect of the Unconscious in males called the "anima"; and (3) an archetype of the creative matrix of existence in all human beings. The ...
Feminine Wiles: Creative Techniques for Writing Women's Feature Stories that Sell
29 reviews
Donna Elizabeth Boetig
Quill Driver Books
, 1998
A Must-Have Reference For ALLWriters
Boetig's lead coverline, "Creative Techniques for Writing Women's Feature Stories..." doesn't give the whole picture. I found it to be "Creative Techniques for Writing That Will Sell" - period. I am a relatively new (notice I didn't say young) writer who reads every book I can find on How to Write, How to Market, and How to Paper My Walls With Rejections. Although I write mostly nonfiction, I ...

Starbird as Scholar
Occasionally, when criticisms of Margaret Starbird's work appear, they tend to be uninformed. Margaret Starbird is a scholar of comparative literature, with a focus on scriptural texts and Medieval traditions. Her academic training is impressive. She completed both a BA and MA in Comparative Literature and German at the University of Maryland. After that, she studied for a year on a Fulbright ...

A must in healing pratice for woman
I work in healing and practicing it for my own benefeit because I had 2 chronic deseases for over 15 years... through my own experience of being treated by a majority of men, I end up realizing that there were things missing in their approach so I can feel completed... I wasn't sure what... but as it is well documented in this book, women approach healing from a different perspective, a different ...

Mind Expanding and Boundless!
What a beautiful and eye opening homage to womankind from a spiritual seeker who has traveled such a great distance from her beginnings as an American feminist of the sixties. In the first chapter she describes her powerful initiation by a woman teacher ( Sitara Devi) into the ancient art of Indian temple dance, Hindu Tantra and women's mysteries. . ( I was pleased to see the photographs of ...
The Fear of the Feminine

Erich Neumann
Princeton University Press
, 1994
A Veil is Lifted
Neumann's insight of this intricate psychology simply amazed me. I read this book a couple of years ago so I have a difficult time recalling particular passages. What did strike me though was how the fear of the feminine, is so often morphed into the blaming of 'woman.' What I took from this book is that the fear of the feminine, is the fear of coming to consciousness, a fear of developing a ...

Elizabeth Clare Prophet
Summit University Press

Mary Magdalene and the Divine Feminine explores the archetypal role of the Divine Feminine in Eastern and Western spirituality and helps to clarify the position of Mary Magdalene. Early Church leaders denied Jesus' message on reverence for Woman and on the inner feminine ...

Enlightening Discernment Between the Feminine & Anima
There are not very many fairy tales geared towards the real woman and the real woman's needs and life journey. Most fairy tales with female characters are based around the real man's inner woman - the anima. Von Franz accurately points out some of the fairy tales which point the way to healing for women, and delves into the meaning of their symbols. Even those who only have a rudimentary idea of ...

Arduous journey from cat to princess
Those familiar with Marie-Luise Von Franz's other books on fairy-tale psychology will be thrilled with this analysis of a Slavic fairytale. The tale itself is riveting and strange, dreamlike and fierce. Von Franz's analysis is, on the other hand, clear and precise, rational yet inspiring. She interprets the imagery in the tale on two levels: personal and collective. On the personal level, she is ...

david kinsley is one of our heroes. he started to write very special and beautiful books about hinduism (especially about godesses/kali) in the late sixties - and continued his interesting and fruitful journey through the fields of barely known aspects of hinduism until today. his work on the ten mahavidyas is a crowning achievement. there are virtually no books about this theme field on the ...
