4.0
To be very honest, a lot of the technical math speak was lost on me. Nothing to do with the book, I am just not good at math or discussions around math.
I did enjoy and get into the book after a chapter or two, and think this should be required reading for anyone who calls themself a feminist. I especially loved the post script with practical ways to incorporate “congressive” behavior in our personal lives as well as different societal structures. I would definitely recommend this book to anybody looking to increase their knowledge on gender imbalance and inequality and how society contributes to the elevation of men and the put down of women due to supposed value of “congressive” and “ingressive” traits.
