The End of Men: And the Rise of Women

The End of Men: And the Rise of Women

A landmark portrait of women, men, andÂ power in a transformed world.
Men have been the dominant sex since, well, theÂ dawn of mankind. But Hanna Rosin was the first toÂ notice that this long-held truth is, astonishingly, noÂ longer true. At this unprecedented moment, by almost every measure, women are no longer gainingÂ on men: They have pulled decisively ahead. AndÂ â‚¬Å“the end of menâ‚¬Ââ‚¬"the title of Rosinâ‚¬s Atlantic cover story on the subjectâ‚¬"has entered the lexicon as dramatically as Betty Friedanâ‚¬s â‚¬Å“feminine mystique,â‚¬ÂÂ Simone de Beauvoirâ‚¬s â‚¬Å“second sex,â‚¬Â Susan Faludiâ‚¬sÂ â‚¬Å“backlash,â‚¬Â and Naomi Wolfâ‚¬s â‚¬Å“beauty mythâ‚¬Â onceÂ did.Â

In this landmark book, Rosin reveals how thisÂ new state of affairs is radically shifting the powerÂ dynamics between men and women at every level ofÂ society, with profound implications for marriage,Â sex, children, work, and more. With wide-rangingÂ curiosity and insight unhampered by assumptionsÂ or ideology, Rosin shows how the radically differentÂ ways men and women today earn, learn, spend, couple upâ‚¬"even killâ‚¬"has turned the big picture upsideÂ down. And in The End of Men she helps us see how,Â regardless of gender, we can adapt to the new reality and channel it for a better future.
