Description

edited by Mary E. Hunt, Kecia Ali and Monique Moultrie

The Guide is a welcome companion for women in religious studies. From undergraduates to retired professors, this distilled wisdom of several generations of colleagues is an important book to have handy. Whether seeking a job, preparing for tenure, working at a non-profit organization, entering the publishing world, figuring finances, mentoring or being mentored, the reader will find just what she (or he—men find it useful too) needs to know. This volume reflects the diversity of women’s experiences, the range of opportunities, the pitfalls and promises of religious studies that span ministry, academia, and activism. It is a good investment for one’s future career and a welcome gift for students. This second edition is updated to reflect the rapidly changing field, especially technological innovations. (Palgrave Macmillan, 224 pages, $28, plus s+h). 

Reviews

“Filled with vital information and resources for women along the career spectrum, this volume is also a fine resource book for all who mentor them. The editors of this new edition have kept it a fresh and relevant guide for those sorting out the academic maze. Excellent!”

-Emilie M. Townes, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Professor, Womanist Ethics and Society and Dean of the Divinity School, Vanderbilt University, USA

A Guide for Women in Religion is not just new and improved; it’s classic and essential. With wisdom taht arises from collaborate sharing, the Guide meets the challenges of today’s religious studies landscape with attention to the impact of technology and an expanding circle of professions. From graduate school through many career decisions, the Guide provides invaluable advice. A must-have on every shelf!”

-Kate M. Ott, Assistant Professor, Christian Social Ethics, Drew University, USA

“This book offers wise advice and good counsel, with a warm and vibrant sense of humor. The revised edition reflects important changes facing women in the academy today — from navigating an academic career as a woman with a disability to grappling with the changing landscape for contingent faculty. It’s an invaluable resource and a great gift ot all of us in the profession!”

-Rabbi Julia Watts Belser, Assistant Professor, Georgetown University, USA
