Allan Dermott's intriguing new book, \u003ci\u003e The Fluctuating Equality Imposed on Women\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeginning with the Hebrews over nine thousand years ago, Dermott traces the various influences that have converged over millennia in order to produce the male-dominated society in which the world lives today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese influences come from every part of life, including the basic concepts of religion that many people take for granted. For example, Dermott explains the two differing concepts of God: the masculine-feminine Elohim and the evolving figure of Jehovah. This evolution was ultimately fueled by Hebrew women's desire for an entity that would assist in fertility and child-rearing, as the snake goddess Asherah did before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders can compare the views of women by figures such as Plato, Aristotle, and Christ while learning how even translations of epistles were performed with ulterior motives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn important look at a system that very few seem to question, this tome encourages us to reject both the matriarch and the patriarch-and instead strive for equality for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e R.
