The WD Book Club

A woman asks a question as old as humanity: how did men come to rule? She’s a science journalist acclaimed for her fearless investigations, determined to trace patriarchy not as an inevitability but as a story we’ve been told. From the first myths of mother goddesses to the rise of states, from scientific claims to cultural traditions, Angela Saini reveals how power was codified, defended, and passed down. In this compulsively readable, brilliantly constructed work, she unspools competing narratives that rewrite our understanding of history, gender, and the truths we take for granted
