It's a Jungle Out There

There is a good review of Amanda Marcotte's book on Powell's site:

Fortunately, she manages to integrate enough fresh material to keep the book relevant to feminists of all ages. As she observes in her introduction, "Spotting sexism sounds easy, but the sheer commonness of it, coupled with its surprising diversity, makes it so that even hardened feminists could use refreshers." Marcotte shines when she takes aim on subjects that are rarely discussed in Women's Studies 101, from the passing stranger who demands that you smile to the ritual of self-flagellation that occurs when female coworkers gather to eat sweets. It's a Jungle Out There offers fun, smart relief from the unending safari of sexism.

I will be reading it on my flight to England....
