Description:

232 pages; 6" x 9". A book of individual interviews with twenty-two progressive, truly egalitarian women who talk of the oft-ignored facts of relationships between the sexes: the disadvantages and lack of power men endure as men, and the advantages and power women enjoy as women. Among the interviewees are Karen DeCrow, former president of NOW 1974-1977; anthropologist Helen Fisher, author of "Anatomy of Love"; and Rikki Klieman, a former prosecutor who warns against exactly the kind of travesty we saw later in the Duke Lacrosse fake rape case. The book offers heartfelt suggestions for making fairness and respect between the sexes genuinely a two-way street.
