Without doubt the most comprehensive treatment of feminist perspectives on leadership in education globally, Kay Fuller's new book is a vital resource for researchers and educators alike. She provides the field with re-theorized insights into thoughtful leadership for the 21stCentury. Margaret Grogan, Professor of Educational Leadership & Policy, Chapman University, USA. In this book Kay Fuller takes her readers on a richly nuanced and insightful reading of the continuities and strengths and transgressive potential of feminist scholarship. We are reminded of the historical and contemporary antecedents of feminism and challenged to think about how the field might further be deconstructed and decolonised. A compelling, authoritative and timely contribution. Tanya Fitzgerald, Professor of Higher Education, The University of Western Australia. Congratulations to Kay Fuller for a comprehensive, succinct and well-researched contribution. Feminist Perspectives on Contemporary Educational Leadership is a valuable addition to literature on feminism after a phase when there have been conversations about 'death of feminism'. It provides an historical overview, while also exploring current nuances such as digital feminism, Queer theory and feminism, or Islam and feminism, and flags up certain future possibilities. A must read! Saeeda Shah, Reader/Associate Professor in educational leadership (retired), University of Leicester, UK. Kay Fuller's Feminist Perspectives on Contemporary Educational Leadership makes a significant contribution at a critical moment for women across the globe. Her autobiographical approach to narrating the evolution of feminist perspectives and their contributions to education leadership over time is executed to powerful effect and demonstrates the potency of intersectional feminism. This theoretically rich work both challenges and guides, making it an informative and simulating read. Michelle Young, Dean of the School of Education and a Professor of Education Leadership and Policy at Loyola Marymount University, USA.

The book is a contemporary feminist classic and a must-read for all those who believe in and care about gender equality in educational leadership.
