Reviews

The D.I.V.A.S. collective has re-conceived notions of powers held, and shared, by strong, scholarly, and unique women. This book challenges while it informs, combining feminism, well-being, and intellect within each chapter. A blend of narrative, research, and pedagogy, each chapter enlightens readers. The book is an artistic and rigorous presentation of qualitative research, auto-ethnography, and the aesthetic. (Shirley R. Steinberg, Research Professor of Youth Studies, The University of Calgary) The D.I.V.A.S. collective has re-conceived notions of powers held, and shared, by strong, scholarly, and unique women.
