This review is from: You Are Our Voice: Articles, Essays, and Interviews About Global Women Entrepreneuring and Women's Issues (Paperback)

This is not a book that should used as a adjunct text in any context. My colleague gave it to me to read, and I was shocked - it is rife with misspellings, poorly written passages, and questionable linkages between the women in the book and the author's activities.

This book reads like the senior theses turned in by my undergraduate students, except my students know to edit their writing, and utilize spell check, before turning their papers into me.

More should be written about women in the former Soviet Union. I hope they will find a more coherent voice than this one.
