Reviews
'Presents a wealth of imagery and information about artists who commanded respect from their male contemporaries...as such it will be of great value both in reassessing the history of Surrealism and in illuminating the persistent marginalization of women's art' - The Oxford Art Journal
'Professor Chadwick's book has been centrally important and has initiated a vital re-centring of the whole Surrealist enterprise' - Times Higher Education Supplement
'Admirable' - Burlington Magazine
'A classic' - ArtNews
