Description

In What Women Want, Patricia Ireland traces her journey to self-awareness and self-realization - from being a teenage bride, a waitress, and a flight attendant for Pan American Airlines to becoming a successful corporate lawyer, a participant in the movement for women's rights, and now one of its key leaders. Writing with wry wit, clear-eyed wisdom, and her invincible warrior spirit, Patricia Ireland explores how her own journey mirrors the changes so many women have made as they have remade the world over the past decades. She frankly discusses her mistakes as well as her unshaken convictions, the setbacks of the movement as well as the triumphs, and the reasons for her high hopes for the future in the face of conservative backlash.
