LOVED this book! I highly recommend it to every woman curious to learn how the female body works and how it has evolved over time. Your mind will be blown by how extraordinary you are!
This book turned out to be quite engaging and concise, covering a lot of ground without overwhelming the reader with too much personal storytelling, unlike some other popular science books. I also appreciated the extensive and easy to find bibliography, which is always a plus for me. However I do think the book could have been better organized, and the subchapter titles were a bit vague, making it tricky to find specific parts later on. Also, many of the book's hypotheses are based on assumptions and educated guesses which are important steps in reaching scientifically proven conclusions but this might make some of the ideas seem less solid.
