Schaefer's painstakingly researched work and exhaustive bibliography... remarkable... Worship a resource that researchers will want to consult frequently for its details on the role women played in the early church. It is also a book many will be pleased to have on their bookshelves and we should be grateful that the extensive research undertaken by Mary Schaefer on the topic of Santa Prassede and the role women played in pastoral affairs in the early Christian church is here preserved for future researchers. Eileen Rubery, Journal of Theological Studies
