Spend Shift appeared on the "best of" lists of The Wall Street Journal,[9] The Washington Post,[10] Fast Company[11] and the WEEK Magazine.[12] The book became a TED talk, “The Post-Crisis Consumer.”[13]

The Athena Doctrine

Gerzema's book, The Athena Doctrine: How Women (And Men Who Think Like Them) Will Rule The World, also written with D'Antonio, was published in April 2013.[14] The book[15] explores the rise of feminine traits and values in society, leadership, and business.
