Took a little tryst into some fiction and finished the Steig Larsson trilogy starting with "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" and finishing with "Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest".
Moving back into some non-fiction:
"Woman: An Intimate Geography" by Natalie Angier
A biology-based look at womens bodies, genetics, evolution, and sexual function. The author's goal: to prove, using science and history, that women are far superior in practically every way from the cellular and chromosomal level to the evolutionary and cultural level.
It's hysterical, tongue-in-cheek, wonderfully academic, and laughs at itself while simultaneously making me want to beat my chest in proud honor of all of my predisposed fabulousness. Yes, despite current cultural attitudes, woman is the stronger sex.
*insert satisfied grunt*
