Includes: * biographical entries on over 800 individual women * 128 topical articles on organizations such as Hadassah, the National Council of Jewish Women, Mizrachi, and the Ladies' Garment Workers' Union * major essays on Jewish women's participation in the movement for women's suffrage, social reform, civil rights, and the recent women's movement * the activities of Jewish women in politics, business, education, the arts, and religion * a readable, inviting format with over 500 large photographs * bibliographies at the end of each entry which include overviews of major scholarship in the field, complete citations of more general works and citations of additional bibliographical and reference sources * the comprehensive index includes citations to every substantive discussion in the entries as well as all proper names appearing in the text, such as organizations, book, song and film titles, schools, and individuals. The Encyclopedia provides information on American Jewish women in all fields of endeavour, and pays special attention to the work of women in the arts, academia, law, the labour movement, education, science, medicine, journalism and publishing, and on the lives of ordinary Jewish women during all time periods and in all regions of the United States.

We are deeply indebted to Professors Hyman and Moore, and to the twenty scholars on their editorial board for their labors. Reading this book has been an extraordinary experience and a great joy."-"Judaism, Spring 1999 "[O]ne of the best reference resources to appear in recent years in women's studies. Extremely well-written, organized, and displayed, these volumes should certainly be in every collection that supports women's studies research on an academic level and in large public libraries as well. The editors and authors are to be commended for the high quality of writing and research."-"Feminist Collections, winter 98 ." a unique work. a very interesting encyclopedia that fills an obvious gap in reference collections. Academic libraries, Judaica and women's studies collections and large public libraries where there is interest will want "Jewish Women in America on their shelves."-"Booklist, January 1998.
