The First Sex: the Natural Talents of Women and How They are Changing the World by Helen E Fisher
As the millennium begins, the world is changing in ways that favor women's special gifts -- their cooperative spirit, patience, intuitive intelligence, their gift for web thinking. And as millions of female baby boomers achieve the biological liberation of menopause, women will begin to wield unprecedented social and economic power.Fisher pictures what life will be like when women fully express their gender differences and work with men to solve the problems of an epoch more complex than any that humanity has yet experienced. In business, women will control vast sums of money and sway political leaders. In civil society, women's compassionate thinking will help eliminate societal and environmental ills. In medicine, law, education, and communications, women's emphasis on the whole rather than the parts will radically alter strategies and goals. And in sexuality, love, and marriage, women will redefine family and romantic attachments, expressing themselves in a variety of bold, creative ways, from early adolescence to old age.
Whether you are a man or a woman, however well you think you know yourself, this visionary book will make you understand yourself better and see yourself as part of a revolution that, amazingly, has already begun.
