Should be read by the general public.

I guess this book is mainly read by people who are assigned it for a college class--that's when I first read it, back in 1991.

It's sometimes shocking, makes a lot of good points, and will be of interest to those who've read books by Susan Faludi, Gloria Steinem, Naomi Wolf, and the like.
