Rezensionen / Stimmen

Anna Kessel's book should inspire a whole generation of women. It ought to be on the school curriculum. -- Hadley Freeman Fascinating, compelling and thought-provoking -- Lauren Laverne * The Pool * This book is a plea to reclaim tracks, pitches and pools for women, and to ensure that the next generation grows up appreciating - and enjoying - all that their bodies are capable of. -- Emma John * The Guardian * A piercing call to arms, [Anna] argues that if women and girls embrace being active, it will lead to a sea change for women's bodies, self-image and outlook. It is brilliant. * Stylist * I'd go as far to say that this book was a life changer for my health and fitness. -- Estee Lalonde This is an impassioned manifesto for why sport can change your life * Health & Fitness * No topic is off limits - cringe worthy school PE, the gender pay gap, parenthood, women as fans, menopause, disability and even her own miscarriage are explored, telling a cradle-to-grave story of our vexed relationship with moving our own bodies. She also lays bare the systemic issues: sports science, for example, is based overwhelmingly on studies of male bodies, as if pregnancy and menstruation simply did not exist. This is a book for parents, sports lovers, and anyone who wants to be on the right side of history. -- Moya Dodd * Australia Financial Review *
