Media Reviews
"In this personable and inspiring autobiography, the controversial president of NOW succeeds (mostly) in presenting herself as an Everywoman who does know what American women want....Ireland is intensely smart, deeply passionate, deliciously outspoken, a woman who enjoys wielding power. Women ought to want to read this book."
-- Kirkus
"Part personal memoir, part political manifesto, 'What Women Want' tells the tale of Ireland's feminist vocation, a short version...of the failed fight for an Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution and culminates in a call for action against the dangers of the anti-abortion religious right....Biography first and foremost, 'What Women Want' puts Ireland [President of the National Organization for Women] in the feminist driver's seat." -- Victoria A. Brownworth
-- Lambda Book Report
"Intensely action-oriented, Ireland relates her growing awareness of discrimination against women in the airline industry, legal profession, and political sphere."
-- Utne Reader
