“SELLING WOMEN SHORT is a bargain even Wal-Mart can’t match. Not only does it tell the story of the amazing women who’ve sued Wal-Mart for sex discrimination, but it offers an unprecedented glimpse into Wal-Mart's pseudo-Christian, ultra-macho, corporate culture.”
-Barbara Ehrenreich, New York Times Bestselling author of Nickel & Dimed
“Featherstone returns to the women of Wal-Mart what the corporation would steal: their humanity, their insight, their voice. These workers’ fight is our fight. No one in today’s economy is unaffected by their struggle for livable wages and workplace respect.”
-Laura Flanders, author of Bushwomen: Tales of a Cynical Species
“Liza Featherstone has written a women’s rights manifesto for the corporate age and a Fast Food Nation for the retail world – utterly engrossing, sometimes shocking and deeply inspiring. A devastating story, superbly told. This is a breakthrough book.”
-Naomi Klein, author of No Logo
“If Wal-Mart was the great business story of the nineties, its workers may well be the big story of the following decade. SELLING WOMEN SHORT is a vivid primer on this extraordinary empire, the lives of its employees, and the real-world costs of modern business.”
- Jeffrey Toobin, author of A Vast Conspiracy
“Liza Featherstone’s eloquent, unsparing page-turner delivers a sharp poke in the eye to one of America’s worst corporations. Here’s one book I'll bet you can’t buy at Wal-Mart!”
-Jim Hightower, author of Thieves in High Places
