Review # 2 was written on 2021-03-31 00:00:00 Akim Jebnouni This was a really interesting psychological and sociological study, but very readable. The idea that with the rise and expansion of education we are all now better qualified, but their job opportunities are not there to enable us to fulfill our potential and utilize our abilities. This causes frustration and depression in the mass of the population. He goes on the discuss gender rancore and the double standards between men and women, where women are regarded as unmarryable at 25 and men can leave it well into their 30's or even 40's. With the higher divorce rate I would argue this has been redressed somewhat, but men will always look for the youngest best looking woman they can find, or will allow. Women depend much more than ever on prosperous, successful men to support them through their child bearing years. Overall a very good book, but there are no solutions here.
