“Liza Mundy has done something remarkable: she has taken all the major social and economic threads of the past decade, and woven them into a tapestry that explains, well . . . everything.

And she has not only written a book that’s important, but also one that's a great read.” —Lisa Belkin, author of First, Do No Harm and Life’s Work

Garcia, author and Research Fellow, The Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction
