For more than fifty years, Bella Abzug championed the powerless and disenfranchised, as an activist, congresswoman, and leader in every major social initiative of her time—this oral biography will be the first comprehensive account of a woman who was one of our most influential leaders.

The book helps readers find the answers to the three big questions each woman is wrestling with: What matters? What works? What’s next? If Dr. Spock defined this generation as they were growing up, Suzanne Levine is doing the same for women as they get a second chance at adulthood.

Journalist and feminist Suzanne Braun Levine, a founding editor of Ms. magazine, has interviewed scores of men and learned about the difficulties fathers face in parenting. This is a brilliant and bracing new look at what is right-and wrong-in American family life.
