Omschrijving
The first biography to be based on interviews with Ardern and those around her
‘This readable, admiring biography will appeal to readers interested in women’s expanding role in politics and the emergence of an empathetic “feminine” governing style that the authors argue Ardern exemplifies.’
‘An inspiring read… One of the most striking features of the book is its political fair-mindedness, its generosity of spirit… Jacinda Ardern has led through empathy, breaking the mold of New Zealand political culture and blazing a trail for women in leadership.’
‘Well-researched and competently written.’
‘Battling Injustice will educate people about gender equality and inspire women to rise up to their potential. It will inspire parents not clip the wings of their daughters. All our girls are meant for the stars, they need equality and freedom to flourish.’
‘The lives of the women Nobel Peace laureates…are clear evidence of my belief that women are naturally more sensitive to others' needs and well-being… Therefore, when, as now, compassionate leadership is required, women should take on a greater role in making this world a better place.’
