Publisher Description

These candid interviews with women from Albania, Brazil, Israel, Mali, South Africa, and other countries cover every aspect of women's lives in our increasingly crowded world. Each woman in this program shares her feelings on family, children, money, love, sex, marriage, and other topics. Faith D'Aluisio, a former TV news producer, and Peter Menzel, author of Material World: A Global Family Portrait, have created a truly stunning program that puts a human face on international issues and gives a voice to the half of humanity that often remains silent.

"A bit of a coffee table book, but an interesting look at women's lives around the world. And a humbling look at how much an American woman has, versus, an African woman, a South American woman, an Asian woman, etc. And, like any good coffee table book, lots of wonderful pictures. "
