AiNEW YORK TIMES/iNOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEARbrbrThe classic account of the hurdles facing adolescent girls in America–now reissued with a new Foreword, to coincide with the award-winning author’s new book on women and identity.brbrInspired by a study by the American Association of University Women that showed girls’ self-esteem plummeting as they reach adolescence, Peggy Orenstein spent months observing, interviewing, and getting know dozens of girls both inside and outside the classroom at two very different schools in northern California. The result was a groundbreaking book in which she brought the disturbing statistics to life with skill and flair of an experienced journalist.brbrOrenstein plumbs the minds of both boys and girls who have learned to equate masculinity with opportunity and assertiveness, and femininity with reserve and restraint. She demonstrates the cost of this insidious lesson, by taking us into the lives of real young women who are struggling with eating disorders, sexual harassment, and declining academic achievement, especially in math and science. Peggy Orenstein’sbSchoolGirls/bis a classic that belongs on the shelf with the work of Carol Gilligan, Joan Jacobs Brumberg, and Mary Pipher.

Some theories are better left undiscovered. Einstein regretted using math to create the atomic bomb; yet some people donat have the social conscious that he had. Imagine a theory where you can actually figure out how long it would take to kill someone. The ability to look at oneas social and personal situations and turn that into a number that allows you to graph the amount of time someone could hold out while being strangled. Well, I found it. Not only did I find it, but I proved it. I know youare thinking, Great, another rambling psycho that has no idea what heas talking about. Thatas where youare wrong. I may ramble, but psychos donat distinguish between right and wrong. I know what I do is wrong; I just know that the pursuit of science is more important.
