✦ Synopsis

The hypothesis of SHE-Q: Why Women Should Mentor Men and Change the World is straightforward, its potential enormous. Females, SHE-Q declares, are the superior, whole-brained, empathic sex. Society's failure to recognize that fact has caused women to labor under a limited, male perspective, skewing their knowledge, capping their wisdom and separating them from Nature, themselves, and each other. But it doesn't have to be that way. Interweaving personal vignettes with broad-based research, the book marshals evidence from history, science, psychology, and philosophy to underscore the validity of SHE-Q. It shows how the female brain works differently from the male brain, better integrating the left and right hemispheres so that SHE-Q transcends both IQ (intelligence quotient) and EQ (emotional intelligence). Laying out a new, feminine-based understanding of the way women and men think and behave, author Michele Takei demonstrates how women can apply this new-found knowledge to mentor the men in their lives--and achieve true equality.
