Man/Woman

In this examination of the relations between the sexes, the author argues against sexual stereotyping and the sexual division of labour. She offers a view of a world beyond the age of the Patriarch, in which men and women's equality is based on what is similar in their natures. Elizabeth Badinter has also written "L'Amour en Plus: l'Histoire de l'Amour Maternel" and "Emilie, Emilie: l'Ambition Feminine aux XVIIIe Siecle". Barbara Wright won the 1987 Scott Moncrieff Prize.
