Book excerpt: Evolutionary theories are full of inconsistencies and "myths", few of which are left unquestioned by the author. She believes that twenty million years of misinterpretation have affected the position of women today, as many people still subscribe to the view that the female evolved as an "afterthought" to become the "hunter's" mate. Her book is intended to put the whole story into a new perspective, and to stike a blow for equality of the sexes.
