斷斷續續讀瞭很久纔讀完,到瞭最後也覺得“不痛不癢”。這類型的書想讓每個讀者産生共鳴自然不容易,但這本書裏關於落後國傢的女性麵對的問題讓人難以想象,關於發達國傢的精英女性麵對的問題又太老生常談。閱讀過程中經常會想到傢裏年邁的老人,尤其是外婆和奶奶,起早貪黑地勞作養傢,她們的精神真的很激勵人!

評分有很多insightful的故事,family planning和宗教之間的conflict很有趣。敘述稍微有一些囉嗦
評分“If you want to lift up humanity, empower women.” 篇幅不長但用瞭很多Melinda在Gates Foundation和微軟工作時與生活中的經曆和例子很全麵地展現瞭全球女性在生活工作傳統文化婚姻中遭受的不公,以及應該如何做纔能更好地改變現狀,教育移情閤作由內而外的改變等,文風簡單溫和但觀點健全有力;朋友作為貧睏二代移民因成績優異拿到Gates奬學金完成大學學業並迴到孟加拉的女子大學任教,迴美後又繼續深造拿到Women's Studies的MA,形成良性循環-改變從自身開始,但仍需社會觀念的革新和各方力量的幫助。
評分“The supreme goal for humanity is not equality but connection.”
Melinda French Gates is a philanthropist, businesswoman, and global advocate for women and girls.
As the co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Melinda sets the direction and priorities of the world's largest philanthropy. She is also the founder of Pivotal Ventures, an investment and incubation company working to drive social progress for women and families in the United States.
Melinda grew up in Dallas, Texas. She received a bachelor's degree in computer science from Duke University and an MBA from Duke's Fuqua School. Melinda spent the first decade of her career developing multimedia products at Microsoft before leaving the company to focus on her family and philanthropic work. She lives in Seattle, Washington with her husband, Bill. They have three children, Jenn, Rory, and Phoebe.
For the last twenty years, Melinda Gates has been on a mission to find solutions for people with the most urgent needs, wherever they live. Throughout this journey, one thing has become increasingly clear to her: If you want to lift a society up, you need to stop keeping women down.
In this moving and compelling book, Melinda shares lessons she’s learned from the inspiring people she’s met during her work and travels around the world. As she writes in the introduction, “That is why I had to write this book―to share the stories of people who have given focus and urgency to my life. I want all of us to see ways we can lift women up where we live.”
Melinda’s unforgettable narrative is backed by startling data as she presents the issues that most need our attention―from child marriage to lack of access to contraceptives to gender inequity in the workplace. And, for the first time, she writes about her personal life and the road to equality in her own marriage. Throughout, she shows how there has never been more opportunity to change the world―and ourselves.
Writing with emotion, candor, and grace, she introduces us to remarkable women and shows the power of connecting with one another.
When we lift others up, they lift us up, too.
“If you want to lift up humanity, empower women” 作者是比尔盖茨的太太,the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation的创始人Melinda Gates。 这本书朴实而真诚,Melinda在书中结合了自己在职场和在盖茨基金会的经历,回顾了她遇到的那些inspire她的女性,也分享了她亲身了...
評分说来惭愧,读了Melinda的《The moment of lift》,才算清楚地明白了基金会为什么会介入Gender Equality的议题,也明白了它为什么会和农业项目、普惠金融项目全并到一起,成为平行于“全球健康”、“全球发展”的第三个部门,并被命名为“全球增长机会”(Global Growth Oppotun...
