“Smart, funny, and tough—Dee Dee Myers may not have ruled the world, but she held her own at the highest levels of the White House. Here she shows how she did it, what she learned, and what all women should know about how to succeed and lead in a world where the deck is all too often stacked against them.”

“Women around the world are rewriting history at a ferocious pace with or without permission. Though provocatively titled, Why Women Should Rule the World is no polemic, but a deeply researched, evocative rendering of this transformation in progress. Dee Dee’s own personal and professional history is a frontline testimonial to women creating their own reality and in so doing changing the world’s.”

“Just like Dee Dee Myers herself, this jewel of a book is sober-minded, funny, and most certainly timely. Avoiding the pitfalls of feminist manifestos, Why Women Should Rule the World nevertheless settles old scores with butter-knife ease. Myers makes a spirited case that ‘women power’ is the most neglected political recourse in our arid times.”

“If I had needed to be convinced that women should rule the world, Dee Dee Myers’s smart and sensible book certainly would have done it. Drawing from interviews with women leaders in a variety of fields, extensive research, and her own ‘first woman’ experiences, Myers presents a compelling case, with more than a few laughs along the way, for why we would all be better off with more women running things.”

“Myers makes a lot of compelling points...presents some fascinating research on leadership styles, such as how the transformational style can be more effective that the hierarchical approach.”

“Part memoir, part state-of-the-feminist movement address, the book is at its best a conversation about Myers' odyssey from Clinton mouthpiece on the campaign trail to White House press secretary.”
