Combining meticulous analysis, sharp writing style, and extensive erudition, Beauvoir recounts how attitudes towards women have changed throughout history,... from ancient times to the present, paying equal attention to biological, sociological, and anthropological aspects. "The Second Sex" is a story of oppression, misconceptions, and prejudices related to the perception of Woman not only from the male perspective but also from the women themselves of the "fair sex."
