From two of our most fiercely moral voices, a passionate call to arms against our era’s most pervasive human rights violation: the oppression of women and girls in the developing world.
With Pulitzer Prize winners Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as our guides, we undertake an odyssey through Africa and Asia to meet the extraordinary women struggling there, among them a Cambodian teenager sold into sex slavery and an Ethiopian woman who suffered devastating injuries in childbirth. Drawing on the breadth of their combined reporting experience, Kristof and WuDunn depict our world with anger, sadness, clarity, and, ultimately, hope.
They show how a little help can transform the lives of women and girls abroad. That Cambodian girl eventually escaped from her brothel and, with assistance from an aid group, built a thriving retail business that supports her family. The Ethiopian woman had her injuries repaired and in time became a surgeon. A Zimbabwean mother of five, counseled to return to school, earned her doctorate and became an expert on AIDS.
Through these stories, Kristof and WuDunn help us see that the key to economic progress lies in unleashing women’s potential. They make clear how so many people have helped to do just that, and how we can each do our part. Throughout much of the world, the greatest unexploited economic resource is the female half of the population. Countries such as China have prospered precisely because they emancipated women and brought them into the formal economy. Unleashing that process globally is not only the right thing to do; it’s also the best strategy for fighting poverty.
Deeply felt, pragmatic, and inspirational, Half the Sky is essential reading for every global citizen.
前几天在朋友圈分享过一篇文章叫“生为女人,我很抱歉”。最近发生了太多叫人跌破眼镜的事情,包括让女性医务人员吃黄体酮、剃光头上前线、累到流产还要歌颂牺牲…… 作为88年的独生女,从小到大从未感受过生为女人的差别,也更没有过月经羞耻,所以看到这些感觉像天方夜谭,对...
评分古希腊神话里说,人类原本是男女同体的,由于神灵的惩罚才将人类分成了两性。自那以后, 男人和女人都在茫茫人海里寻找着自己的另一半,试图与那一半重新汇合。 当我们严肃的对待这个传说的时候,多半会一脸无奈的说,唉,人类何苦为难人类。这就是天空的一半对另一半的真实状...
评分一年一度的毕业季来临,“宁要武大郎,不要穆桂英”这个话题的横空出世引起了不小的关注,终于有媒体开始系统性地报道男女生在就业时遇到的性别歧视了。由于女性在社会分工上约定俗成地被认定为要多负起照顾家庭、生儿育女的责任,企业在选人的时候自然愿意选择将更多精力放在...

As a public health student in the Global Public Health class we were required to read this reading. It was very narrative, while covering all the important points the author wanted to convey to the readers. Stories are very touching, yet lead to deep thinking after reading.
