Carol Gilligan and the Search for Voice
From the Series Extraordinary Women in Psychology
Carol Gilligan has devoted her life to discovering, uncovering, and recovering voices belonging to girls and women, as well as boys and men.
Through her work, she has played an enormous role in reconceptualizing traditionally held views on moral and identity development in young people, most prominently in her landmark 1982 book detailing her ethic of care model, In a Different Voice (coined by Harvard University Press as “The little book that started a revolution”). Drawing on source material that includes interviews with Gilligan as well as her own writings in books and articles, this book offers young readers not only the opportunity to learn about a pioneering psychologist and her momentous work but also for them to consider the potential power of their own voices as they go forward in life.

School Library Journal
“A highly readable and powerful volume . . . . Pop-out text boxes, illustrations, and photographs, as well as large text, are all helpful features to increase accessibility. Some may find it most important that there are entire sections on listening, because what’s a voice without the ability to listen. Complete with scientific sources and interactive activities, this title is great for middle grade and early high school readers.”—School Library Journal
