"In this engaging book, Nel Noddings examines several theological, philosophical, and psychological associations of women with evil in order to propose a counter-definition of evil from the perspective of women's experience."—Margaret R. Miles, Commonwealth

"Noddings has written an ambitious book. . . . She offers a way of thinking about ethics that challenges the theology as well as the morality at the heart of our culture and its institutions. The challenge of this book should engage both theologians and educators for some time."—Marie Anne Mayeski, America

"The power of Noddings' book . . . lies in its challenge to traditional ethical systems. . . . There is something sensible, immediate, and profoundly thought-provoking about her claims. . . . This is a challenging book and deserves attention."—Karen Lebacqz, Theological Studies
