[Elizabeth Lund]

yet another book I wish would be updated; somewhat unexpected conclusions.

[Cynthia Bemis Abrams]

This is important subject matter which isn't really found in 2025. For a book written in 1991, it captures women at a crossroads of feminism, TV's offerings and clear class distinction.
