註釋This book attempts to bring together in one volume an overview of the considerable literature, particularly from philosophy and the social sciences, on the nature of woman. It provides introductions to the arguments and conclusions about this topic of a wide range of Western thinkers, from Plato, Aristotle, and the authors of Genesis to the feminists and antifeminists of the 1970s. Each has presented original or influential theories on some or all of the following issues: (1) moral, psychological, theological and other "intrinsic" differences between women and men (apart from the obvious biological ones); (2) causal explanations of sex dominance, where it occurs; (3) the moral implications of sex roles, and the moral aspects of other issues of special relevance to women, e.g. abortion; and (4) possible means of engineering social change with respect to sex roles.
