Gender on Planet Earth by Ann Oakley
A provocative analysis of gender inequalitya s destructive effects on our society and our planet.
"This is an intriguing and challenging collection of disparate essays, written with commitment" Ken Worpole, Times Higher Education Supplement
"On many levels this is a timely and convincing gazetteer of contemporary human and political folly, and Oakley freqently turns a very neat phrase, as when she notes that "cars dominate public space in much the same way that men dominate public life"....This is an intriguing and challenging collection of disparate essays". Ken Worpole, Books
