About this title

Synopsis

A bold, original take on how gender shapes mind, ethics, and society.

This volume presents a systematic look at the differences the author sees between the sexes. It introduces a unified approach to characterology and argues for a distinctive psychology of woman, built from philosophical reflection as much as observation. The work is presented as a rigorous inquiry into how gender influences values, behavior, and human relation.

• Explore the book’s core idea: a single principle that contrasts man and woman.
• Learn about imagined types and how they are used to analyze behavior, ethics, and art.
• See how the author connects psychology, philosophy, and moral theory to the question of gender.
• Consider debates about femininity, genius, and moral responsibility through a controversial, historically influential lens.

Ideal for readers interested in philosophy of gender, psychology, and the history of ideas, this edition invites careful reading and critical engagement with a provocative, century-old argument.
