Description

The goal of this book is not to analyze the competing viewpoints, "women's equality" versus traditional family values", in any depth, but simply to step outside the familiar rhetoric in an attempt to obtain a view of the Big Picture. The aim of this inquiry is a clearing of the conceptual atmosphere.
