Formans Mark
50th Anniversary
Broner's Feminist Dayenu' Among
Selections in Decade of Women'
Prof. Esther M. Broner of
the Wayne State University
faculty is represented in a
volume on women in the
last decade with the follow-
ing:
testimony and their own
past for the heroines ig-
nored within Jewish cul-
ture — and finding them.
"Admiring the strengths
of their mothers and
grandmothers, they seek
new ways to express their
own talents ... and are be-
ginning to demand posi-
tions of communal leader-
ship, full equality within
the synagogue, and full
partnership in Jewish life."
DAYENU
If Eve had been created in
the
image of God and not as a
helper to Adam, dayenu (it
would have sufficed).

According to Ms. Lyons,
the book is divided by cate-
gory, "things we've lived
through — demonstrations,
the campaign for reproduct-
ive freedom, ERA, the
workplace where we can
now find women construc-
tion workers, women
mayors, women fire fight-
ers."
The book is highlighted
by photographs and con-
tains 27 sections on topics
relating to women. There
also is a chronology and a
bibliography of 100 recom-
mended books.

"In the past few years

have also rejected the strict
sex-role division within the
Jewish tradition.
