"Rhodri Jeffreys-Jones offers the first comprehensive overview of women's influence on US foreign policy since the First World War . . . It is an important contribution to international historical literature."-The International History Review
"Jeffreys-Jones is to be applauded for his pioneering efforts to bring together women's history and the history of foreign policy."-The Journal of American History
"The strength of Mr. Jeffreys-Jones's provocative history is that it is sufficiently expansive to be able to include figures as diverse as Margaret Chase Smith and Bella Abzug. . . . Rather than explaining the 'why' of women's foreign policy tradition, Changing Differences explores the 'what,' and does so with considerable originality."-The New York Times
"Explores a subject that has been ignored too long-the important role that women have played in shaping American foreign policy. Rhodri Jeffreys-Jones has opened the door to a subject that will draw considerably more attention in the future."-Nancy Landon Kassebaum, former United States Senator, Kansas
Rhodri Jeffreys-Jones is a reader in history at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and has published several books, including The CIA and American Democracy.
