John Tyler: A Rare Career Book

This book is conveniently divided into 3 sections: why they don't rule the world, why they should, and how they can.

When it comes to conversations, women are seen as more nuanced. That is to say, while a man's motivations may be linear, a woman's are polynomial. This can either be taken as "men are less treacherous for they're more obvious" or "women are less treacherous because they can fit a curve better and resolve conflicts". That is wholly a framing issue.

Nature vs. Nurture - Which wins out? Predictably, Myers takes the more nuanced approach and says "both!"

The book is strewn with anecdotes of how women can really accomplish things on the same scope as men. This is not to say that women must be like men. That's like saying that in order to advance your country, you must choose between the military, diplomacy, or economy, and that is not the case at all. Women have tools at their disposal which can also get the job done.

Her tone is remarkably upbeat. She laments the barriers to women, but also recognizes that women also have personal issues that hold them back. It's not just a conspiracy that is shafting them. However, she does not dwell too much on these things, preferring to speak about how women can advance further, not how they're being kept back.
