This compendium of articles written by scholars in the field of meso-American studies is densely packed with information. It reviews the position of women in Meso-America pre-conquest through the codices and archeological remnants. It covers gender issues and the impact of the Spaniards ideology on the position of women in society. It reviews the impact of christianization on women and men by tracing naming patterns in baptismal records. It covers such details as the political activism of women against the crimes of the "Colonia" such as forced labor in the silver mines. It reviews legal processes, both in terms of how women used the legal system and how they were viewed by it. It covers women of power who managed to hold on to their power, becoming important parts of the post-conquest social order. And Francis Karttunen adds a very special piece on that enigmatic figure "La Malinche." This book is rather scholarly for the casual reader, but is still so full of interesting details that it can be read and enjoyed by any person serious about female positions in imperialized societies or an abiding interest in meso-America
