The First Sex: The Natural Talents of Women and How They Are Changing the World

I am amused by the backlash coming from predominantly males, and is it a surprise? Fisher's book touches a nerve - and deeply for those whom it threatens most - the male of the species. Good for her! And as for all the insecure men who are not going to like the inevitable changes to come... the human species thankfully continue to evolve. Deal with it. And women are stepping up again to take their rightful place in a world that honors the feminine AND the male, the yin AND the yang, the rational AND the emotional. For as Fisher says, this is what makes the world go round! And really, has the male-dominated world really done well for the human race? War, ecological destruction, etc. - where did these ideas come from anyway?

What a pleasure to have explained all the questions one has accumulated over the years. Her book continues in greater detail an article that appeared in the Ladies' Home Journal several years ago. In fact, most of the studies in that article were also cited in her book. It was a pleasant reassurance to know that women ARE more capable in using their brains, and in a much more complex fashion. But we knew that. In fact, everyone has known that for centuries! It's nice to see it so clearly now.

In China, we say that women is half of the sky, and man, the another half. But in practice, there are much more to be improved. For example, female students from college are more difficult to find jobs. This book of Fisher gives new concept to realize female.As I translator, I want to translate this book into Chinese for more Chinese female to share these concepts. I hope Ms. Fisher can contact with me via e-mail.

Fisher's newest book is a well-crafted message of how natural selection has shaped women, and how women's natural talents are already changing, and will continue to change, the way the world does business and the way relationships are conducted. A must read.
