Reconsidering a Classic: Assessing the History of Women's Higher Education a Dozen Years after Barbara Solomon.
Eisenmann, Linda
Harvard Educational Review, v67 n4 p689-717 Win 1997
A critique of Barbara Miller Solomon's 1985 book "In the Company of Educated Women" identifies its ground-breaking contributions but shows how it limited women's educational history by overemphasizing access to higher education and neglecting wider influences such as economics, women's occupational choices, and women's status in society.
