Media Reviews
“A creative departure from Jungian orthodoxy. . . Bolen’s book is interesting, even fascinating, and rings true psychologically.” — Nashville Tennessean “Every woman will find herself in one or more of the Greek heroines, and no woman . . . will find herself criticized. Goddesses in Everywoman supplies powerful concrete images that can be used effectively to produce self-understanding and change. Highly recommeneded.” — ALA Booklist “The highest value of Goddesses in Everywoman lies in the moments of recognition it provides. The author labels them as moments of “Aha!’: that insightful second when we understand and internalize; when we recognize what we ourselves have experienced, feel trust because of that truth, and then are taken one step further to an understanding of ‘Yes, that’s why.’” — Gloria Steinem “Dr. Bolen dreams big. . . hers is a strong voice as a leader in the women’s empowerment movement.” — Dallas Morning News “A glorious book. Jean Shinoda Bolen’s weaving of myth, science and keen observation makes this an outstanding contribution to the humanities.” — Rita Mae Brown “Every woman will find herself in one or more of the Greek heroines, and no woman . . . will find herself criticized. Goddesses in Everywoman supplies powerful concrete images that can be used effectively to produce self-understanding and change. Highly recommended.” — Booklist
