Who will derive the greatest benefit from this book? Certainly those responsible for planning and conducting executive education programs in which women participate. Also, those participants. Finally, those who agree with the authors (as do I) that responsible and rigorous research and scholarship on the education of women has (in Paul Williams' words) "only just begun." One of my favorite passages is provided in the Postscript when the authors urge their reader to "journey into learning" and suggest three companions ("sister travelers") from Native American folklore: The Old Spider Woman who is the Great Mother ("creator, weaver, tender of the fires of life"), the Seeker Woman who is a guide for women on a journey into the unknown (providing "consciousness and enlightenment, insights and intuition, and unmasking, which reveals inner truth"), and the Woman of Knowledge who who serves as a guide for "turning things upside down on our learning journeys, for looking and listening and feeling and thinking with different eyes." In fact, anyone (indeed everyone) now preparing to to embark on or already involved in a "journey" to achieve knowledge and (hopefully) wisdom should have all three as companions. Faith, Curiosity, and Courage are obviously not gender-specific.
