This book starts from the position that gender injustice is the greatest violation of human rights on the planet. It affects women in developed and developing countries, rich and poor. Gender injustice has an impact on health, wealth, education, representation, opportunity, and security everywhere. It is no exaggeration to describe the position of women as a kind of apartheid, but it is not limited to one country or historical period. This ancient and ongoing injustice has lasted for thousands of years and has a global reach. Only radical solutions can address even the surface of the issue. However, the gain is great: the secondary benefits for peace, prosperity, sustainability, and general human happiness are potentially enormous. All because we are all connected and all men are also sons of women.
