What to expect
A revised and updated anniversary edition of Natalie Angier’s bestselling guide to―and celebration of―the female body
Woman is a fascinating, fact-filled guide that covers everything from organs to orgasms, hormones to hysterectomies. With her characteristic clarity, insight, and sheer exuberance of language, bestselling author Natalie Angier cuts through the still prevalent myths and misinformation surrounding the female body, that most enigmatic of evolutionary masterpieces. With a witty and assured narrative, and a listener-friendly dose of science, Woman is an essential and engaging resource for all time.
Critics Review
“A tour de force, a wonderful, entertaining and informative book.”
“Dazzling…What you’ll see through her eyes will startle and amaze you.”
“The revolution already has a manifesto in the form of the ebullient Woman: An Intimate Geography…You gotta love a self-described female chauvinist sow who writes like Walt Whitman crossed with Erma Bombeck and depicts the vagina as a Rorschach with legs. Woman is a delicious cocktail of estrogen and amphetamine designed to pump up the ovaries as well as the cerebral cortex.”
“One knows early on one is reading a classic—a text so necessary and abundant and true that all efforts of its kind, for decades before and after it, will be measure by it.”
“Ultimately, this grand tour of the female body provides a new vision of the role of women in the history of our species.”
