Editorial Reviews
The New York Times Book Review, Sally Abrahms
The subject, while hardly breezy, is well researched and skillfully presented, and serviceably translated from the French by Lydia Davis.

Newsweek
As Badinter reckons, masculinity--far more than femininity--is an abstraction, something to be achieved rather than simply lived out. From birth, girls are intimately tied to womanhood through their connection with the maternal womb. Boys are more distant, biologically and socially, from the manhood of their father.
