Description

Woman: An Intimate Geography by Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer Natalie Angier is an engaging examination of the female body, biology, and the cultural ideas surrounding womanhood. With lively language and scientific curiosity, Angier guides readers through female anatomy and physiology, covering hormones, organs, sexuality, exercise, menopause, breast milk, and other aspects of women’s health.

The book also questions familiar assumptions about gender and evolutionary psychology. Angier examines how cultural bias can shape scientific research and challenges claims that portray women and men as naturally limited to fixed roles or behaviours.

Informative, witty, and thought-provoking, this book presents biology without 

reducing women to stereotypes. It offers a fresh celebration of the female body while considering how science affects our understanding of identity, relationships, and human nature. A strong choice for readers interested in women’s studies, biology, health, feminism, and accessible science writing.
