The Sisterhood - The Secret History of Women at the CIA (Hardcover): Liza Mundy The Sisterhood - The Secret History of Women at the CIA (Hardcover)

'The Sisterhood' brings to life the true story of the network of brilliant female intelligence analysts who began pursuing Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in the 1990s, long before he became notorious. In the years leading up to 9/11, they repeatedly and fruitlessly warned government officials of an impending major assault on US soil, but were ignored because they were women working in an unglamorous part of the CIA. After 9/11 shook the country, and the world, these women had no choice but to push forward, putting their families, social lives, and health on the backburner as they worked around the clock to dismantle Al-Qaeda and bring the world’s most infamous terrorist to justice. Liza Mundy skilfully animates the lives of these unsung heroes, delivering a thrilling narrative that heralds the essential contributions women have made to global security, intelligence, and espionage work, as well as the trials and sacrifices they’ve faced to earn trust and respect in a traditionally male-dominated field.

IN "THE RICHER SEX," bestselling author and "Washington Post "writer Liza Mundy takes us to the exciting frontier of a new economic order, showing why more households will be supported by women than by men within a generation and how both men and women will feel surprisingly liberated in the end. She goes deep inside the lives of cutting-edge couples to paint a picture of how dating, sex, marriage, and home life are changing. She also investigates all the new, sometimes highly personal debates born in a society that can no longer assume the male is the primary breadwinner. This wild ride into the future, grounded in Mundy's peerless journalism, will cause women and men of all generations to rethink the meaning of this social upheaval.

In the tradition of Hidden Figures and The Girls of Atomic City, Code Girls is the amazing true story of the young American women who cracked German and Japanese military codes during World War II. More than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II, recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to the nation's capital to learn the top secret art of code breaking. Through their work, the code girls helped save countless lives and were vital in ending the war. But due to the top secret nature of their accomplishments, these women have never been able to talk about their story--until now. Through dazzling research and countless interviews with the surviving code girls, Liza Mundy brings their story to life with zeal, grace, and passion. Abridged and adapted for a middle grade audience, Code Girls brings this important story to young readers for the first time, showcasing this vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.

Award-winning journalist Liza Mundy captures the human narratives, as well as the science, behind the controversial, multibillion-dollar fertility industry, and examines how this huge social experiment is transforming our most basic relationships and even our destiny as a species.
Skyrocketing infertility rates and dizzying technological advances are revolutionizing American families and changing the way we think about parenthood, childbirth, and life itself. Using in-depth reporting and riveting anecdotal material from doctors, families, surrogates, sperm and egg donors, infertile men and women, single and gay and lesbian parents, and children conceived through technology, Mundy explores the impact of assisted reproduction on individuals as well as the ethical issues raised and the potentially vast social consequences. The unforgettable personal stories in "Everything Conceivable "run the gamut from joyous to tragic; all of them raise questions we dare not ignore.
