A review by laurensalisbury
The Power Book: What Is It, Who Has It and Why? by Georgia Amson-Bradshaw, Claire Saunders

3.0

This was a pretty good introduction to elements of power, but I agree with other reviewers that it's unclear who the target audience really is. I read this as a book for middle grade students but I could see where it might skew older/younger depending on the section being read. I found myself wondering if there were some better, more diverse examples of leaders, rebels, and activists that could have been included. I see the value of citing folks like MLK and Rosa Parks, but many of the examples are of people who have either been overrepresented in other writing or are problematic examples that aren't contextualized due to the short form of the book.
