Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as our guides, we undertake a journey through Africa and Asia to meet an extraordinary array of women struggling under profoundly dire circumstances-and an equally extraordinary group that have triumphed. Through their stories, Kristof and WuDunn help us see that the key to progress in our world lies in unleashing women's potential-and they make clear how each of us can help make that happen. Fiercely moral, pragmatic, and inspirational, "Half the Sky "is essential reading for every global citizen.</div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <br></br> <div class="syndetics_item"> <table
