Book Reviews of Promiscuities: The Secret Struggle for Womanhood

Book Review: Well Worth Your Time
Summary: 4 Stars

I found this book to be a facinating study into what it meant to grow up female in San Francisco in the 1970's. Having grown up in rural america about the same time as Ms. Erlich I found the accounts of growing up in San Francisco as facinating as I did find growing up female. I found many of the stories both shocking as well as facinating. The phenomological research method imploid by the author clearly presented the material in the humanistic manor it deserved. In short I would highly recommend this book to anyone who would like a glimse into this world.
