Essential reading for our times; as women are pulling together to demand their rights— A landmark portrait of women; men; and power in a transformed world. “Anchored by data and aromatized by anecdotes; [Rosin] concludes that women are gaining the upper hand." –The Washington Post Men have been the dominant sex since; well; the dawn of mankind. But Hanna Rosin was the first to notice that this long-held truth is; astonishingly; no longer true. Today; by almost every measure; women are no longer gaining on men: They have pulled decisively ahead. And “the end of menâ€â€”the title of Rosin’s Atlantic cover story on the subject—has entered the lexicon as dramatically as Betty Friedan’s “feminine mystique;†Simone de Beauvoir’s “second sex;†Susan Faludi’s “backlash;†and Naomi Wolf’s “beauty myth†once did. In this landmark book; Rosin reveals how our current state of affairs is radically shifting the power dynamics between men and women at every level of society; with profound implications for marriage; sex; children; work; and more. With wide-ranging curiosity and insight unhampered by assumptions or ideology; Rosin shows how the radically different ways men and women today earn; learn; spend; couple up—even kill—has turned the big picture upside down. And in The End of Men she helps us see how; regardless of gender; we can adapt to the new reality and channel it for a better future.
