Creating and Uncreating Patriarchies: A 10,000 Year Perspective with Angela Saini
I've come across a book that makes the perplexing and painful things from my childhood AND professional life make sense within the broader context of the history of humanity. And I'd like to shout about it from the mountaintops. This book is The Patriarchs: How Men Came to Rule, by Angela Saini, a science journalist and author who teaches at MIT. Now, don't get this wrong. The book ISN'T about bashing men or making the female gender superior to another (that would just be perpetuating yet another form of oppression). It IS about goi...
