How has patriarchal culture influenced the understanding of the female field? Why does being a woman mean being a failure? Since the time of Charles Darwin, evolutionary biologists have been convinced that males in the animal kingdom are much more... interesting: they are authoritative and chaotic in their relationships, while females are boring, passive, and loyal. In this book, you will read a new history. By exploring same-sex pairs of female albatrosses that raise chicks, bloodthirsty mother meerkats, or the titanic battle of the sexes that ducks engage in, the author showcases a new evolutionary biology where females can be just as dynamic and successful as any male. This is a cruel, amusing, and revolutionary look at the queens of the animal kingdom that will astonish you with its sensationalism and realism.
