I‘m not really too keen on this book. It‘s well written and it does make its point, but it was rather annoying to read. There is no doubt that the author knows her stuff, she cites many scientific studies in support of her various assertions, but the whole book had somewhat of a “pop psych” feel to it. Some chapters will make the reader uncomfortable, which was her intent. I disagree with some of her theories. 3 out of 5 stars.
