Title: A hero for every woman
Review: I loved this book. Arlene Blum has lived a full, adventurous, and fascinating life. The book ties together her Jewish childhood experiences with her academic and climbing accomplishments. And although I take a completely different stance from her approach to raising a family - she and her lover deliberately chose to try to conceive while never intending to marry and then Arlene raised her daughter basically on her own (the father has contact but lives in distant Australia) - Her writing enables me to understand the reasons for the choices she made. Arlene is able to take an honest look at her approach to the many obstacles she faced in her life. It is her ability to overcome that inspires.
