Bread, Wine and Women by Susan Dowell

This book analyses the theological and Christian feminist debate that has wracked the Anglican Church in recent years, and threatens it with more division after the first female ordination in November 1992, in one of the greatest historic moments in Anglican Church history, the General Synod voted for the ordination of women to the priesthood. When the result was announced people wept, sang and danced in the streets - 20 years of campaigning had finally triumphed. Other sections of the Clergy threatened to walk over to the Roman Catholic Church. This book examines the debate.
