The book presents a compelling argument for the valid ordination of women in the Catholic Church, challenging the traditional claims of an unbroken authoritative tradition against it. O'Brien highlights the historical presence of women in ministerial roles during the early Church and provides evidence of women deacons and presbyters in the first millennium. He contends that later restrictions on women's ordination stemmed from cultural adaptations rather than theological necessity, suggesting that the canon law prohibiting women's ordination can be reformed.
