Why read it

  • You will learn to trace a startling statistic back to its source before you repeat it
  • You will ask harder questions of an alarming study when newspapers report it
  • You will weigh one writer's case that feminism should put the individual human being first, not a separate women's point of view

Who it is for

  • A reader who wants to check the claims behind a heated debate
  • A journalist who has repeated a statistic without tracing it
  • A student who wants to hear a critic of campus feminism
