1. Seder nashim

I tried to look into getting a copy of the new publication of Seder Nashim. I found the Ben Zvi Institute's website and while I was able to find a page on the Seder Nashim, I was unable to figure out how to order because all instructions were in Hebrew. Any advice on where I might go to order this?
2. Yiddish

There were Yiddish prayerbooks for Ashkenazic women, just as there were Ladino prayerbooks for Sephardi women. The alternative was to teach women to read and understand classical Hebrew, as happened in the Hirsch schools in Frankfurt and the Beth Jacob schools in Poland.
