"According to philosopher Luce Irigaray, for women to 'become what we are ... [means] to refuse to allow parts of ourselves to shrivel dn die that have the potential for growth and fulfilment'.  In this volume we have thirteen Australian women who have done just that, refused to 'shrivel and die' but instead have continued to grow an develop even when that desire for growth has led to them pruning off from their lives religious traditions which inhibit flourishing.  The cultural context means that each women has encountered Christianity at some point, but not all continue with the at tradition.  Instead some have embraced Wicca, others have explored Goddess, Buddhism and New Thought."
