<p>"Since the gender gap was identified in the 1980s, candidates have pandered to women voters—only to turn their backs when elected. Not this time, say Derber and Adam in this insightful twist on presidential politics. Women’s values matter as much as their votes in this election. As those values are pro family, environment, children, health care, a strong economy, peace, and a strong, principled United States, then history will be made in this election no matter what. This time, not just a gender gap, but a victory for values. This is a valuable book chronicling this pivotal moment.”Susan Shaer, Executive Director, Women's Action for New Directions (WAND)“The New Feminized Majority has breathtaking implications for understanding short- and long-term changes in American society, politics, and culture. The authors are careful researchers, a talented writing team, and outstanding social commentators.”Judith Blau, Professor, UNC Chapel Hill and President, Sociologists without Borders"Charles Derber is one of our most astute and eloquent social critics.”Howard Zinn, Professor Emeritus, Boston University“This hopeful book from Adam (her coauthor's former student) and Derber (professor of sociology at Boston College) will resonate most with Democrats, but it's aimed at a general audience. The authors interpret the polling data of recent years as indicating more "feminized" values in the electorate and advise all Democrats to embrace these values. Recommended for public and undergraduate libraries.”Library Journal</p>
