- Description
- The author explores the role of women in evolutionary theory. She argues that selection pressures have shaped the female mind over many generations: their emotions, friendship, competition, aggression and mate choice. She deals with questions such as if women were designed for monogamy or promiscuity: what women compete for: if contraception and IVF subverted the process of natural selection. New to this edition: the role of oxytocin in female partner-directed aggression: an analysis of women and mental health disorders and the relationship this has with women's levels of aggression: expanded sections on sexual conflict, the individual differences between women and culture and gene-culture evolution. First ed.: 2002

- Description
- This book draws on both historical and contemporary European case-studies to offer an account of the relationship between gender and well-being. The authors focus on key discussions of the changing conceptions of well-being from early twentieth century calculations of the relationship between income and the cost-of-living, to more recent critiques from feminist writers. Their answers allow them to significantly challenge the issue with the idea that well-being is not only associated with income or opulence but also relates to more abstract concepts including capabilities, freedom, and agency of different women and men and will be of considerable interest to economic and social historians, sociologists of health, gender, sexuality and economists.
