I'm actually reading the History of Misogyny book for the 3rd time and wanted to pass along my warm wishes to Jack Holland's family. His book is a masterpiece and in my opinion, should be required reading in all schools! Big thanks to his wife and daughter for getting it published after the originally published pulled his very ironic stunt considering the book's subject matter. Added: June 8, 2008

It's been well over a year since I visited this website - and in that time, I have lost my father. I received a lovely email from Jack Holland's widow after a posting I made 12 months or so ago - and I think, perhaps, that Mrs Holland didn't realise that I knew Jack had passed on. ( I didn't make myself very clear and I'm sorry for that) I think that I was trying to say, at the time, that whether he was physically here or not - there's a part of Jack that lives on as a reminder to us all - that life is as infinite as death, as is the all-consuming conundrum of 'wanting to write it down.' I miss my dad. I'm writing. And I found a remnant of myself within Jack's URl that has made all the difference. Regards, Colleen (Ps I'm going to read Misogyny again - starting tomorrow!)

It is the most beautifully written book I have ever read. I could tell right away that this man must be a poet! I can't tell you how long I have searched for a book that would explain how our oppresion - both past and current - came about. A reason behind all the pain. And this book has inspired me to go to college and learn more about Womyn's history in the hopes of becoming a feminist historian myself! Two things I have to ask first: 1) Did Mr.Holland write anymore books concerning women's issues? 2) Are there any books you could recommend ...or even schools? Bravo to you two women who perservered in triumph when the book's publishment was in jeopardy! I plan on buying a copy for every woman in my family! Goddess bless you! Added: January 23, 2008

I would like to express my appreciation to Jack Holland's family for persevering in their efforts to get his book published. It is an extraordinary and moving achievement in that it takes such a far-reaching perspective and covers so many cultures. It also shows a deep empathy with woman's plight through the centuries of patriarchal culture. It confirms what my friend Jules Cashford and I uncovered when we wrote our own book, "The Myth of the Goddess" some sixteen years ago. It is helping me in writing another book of which one chapter focuses on the negative effects of the myth of the Fall of Man and the doctrine of original sin. So thank you for bringing this exceptional book to the notice of the world, Anne Baring Added: January 19, 2008

Jack's book about the history of misogyny strengthens me in my oppinion to learn more about and fight against this discrimination! I am a student of Middle Eastern Studies/ Islam Studies and Political Science and I am occupied on the relation between rape (especially in conflicts) and misogyny. I see myself as an activist and would like to serve for transportation of this topic into wider public. Thank's to Jack this subject gets another voice. I would be grateful to get in contact with others who are interested in this topic, so feel free to write an Email. Added: January 17, 2008
