Summary of Wise Women : Reflections of Teachers at Mid-Life

Written by influential and renowned teachers at midlife, this collection includes deeply personal and groundbreaking autobiographical accounts of women who came of age during the second wave of the women's movement and are now wise women on campus. The essays in Wise Women provide powerful accounts of the psychological, physical, and social changes brought on by menopause, and details the ways in which the aging process affects these women's lives as teachers, feminists, leaders, mentors and writers. These joyful, funny, impassioned accounts are among the best writing ever produced on what life is really like for women in the ivory tower.
