From two of our most fiercely moral voices, a passionate call to arms against our era’s most pervasive human rights violation: the oppression of women and girls in the developing world.
With Pulitzer Prize winners Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as our guides, we undertake an odyssey through Africa and Asia to meet the extraordinary women struggling there, among them a Cambodian teenager sold into sex slavery and an Ethiopian woman who suffered devastating injuries in childbirth. Drawing on the breadth of their combined reporting experience, Kristof and WuDunn depict our world with anger, sadness, clarity, and, ultimately, hope.
They show how a little help can transform the lives of women and girls abroad. That Cambodian girl eventually escaped from her brothel and, with assistance from an aid group, built a thriving retail business that supports her family. The Ethiopian woman had her injuries repaired and in time became a surgeon. A Zimbabwean mother of five, counseled to return to school, earned her doctorate and became an expert on AIDS.
Through these stories, Kristof and WuDunn help us see that the key to economic progress lies in unleashing women’s potential. They make clear how so many people have helped to do just that, and how we can each do our part. Throughout much of the world, the greatest unexploited economic resource is the female half of the population. Countries such as China have prospered precisely because they emancipated women and brought them into the formal economy. Unleashing that process globally is not only the right thing to do; it’s also the best strategy for fighting poverty.
Deeply felt, pragmatic, and inspirational, Half the Sky is essential reading for every global citizen.

评分用大量数据说话
评分As a public health student in the Global Public Health class we were required to read this reading. It was very narrative, while covering all the important points the author wanted to convey to the readers. Stories are very touching, yet lead to deep thinking after reading.
评分total feminism:"when women gain a voice in society, there's evidence of less violence."
评分这是一本很好的发展学入门书 女性作为发展问题中的直接受害者与问题制造者(虽然多数时候迫于无奈或没有选择)个人与社会发展的枢纽隐藏在错综复杂的文化与贫困的交接处 作者很费心 采访了很多人 资料丰富 对于不同类型的发展机构都给与中肯的评价 只是有些时候人物描写过于二元化 脸谱化 词风好像联合国宣传画 来自于社会其他组别 如男性、社区领导、援助人员的背景音被刻意削弱 故事反而没了真实的力量 建议作者参考纪录片印度的女儿 那种冷静的真实与倾听
想必我们都不会忘记去年让全世界人民都为之共愤的新德里事件。一名23岁的女生在回家的路上登上了一辆私人公交车,被轮奸后又被直接丢到下水道里。实际上,在南亚及伊斯兰教社会等发展中国家和地区,年轻的女性遭受性暴力,被贩卖充当性奴,遭阉割虐待等骇人听闻的事件屡...
评分 评分本书今年五月上市以来,被问最多的问题之一是书名的翻译。其实,关于这个我们内部讨论过多次,最后为什么没有翻译成“半边天”?理由如下: 1、“半边天”三个字作为中文语境下的一个习惯性词语,容易让人直接联想到毛时代,有些陈旧,虽然人们一看便知,也符合作者的本意,但...
评分我的老家在贵州,一个提起来关键词便少不了“贫困”的省份,2015的数据显示,全省88个县区中就有50个是国家重点扶贫县。大概十几二十年前,我还没有出来读大学,报纸上读到一则新闻,印象特别深刻,说影星吕良伟去贵州考察,冬天,气温接近零度,他看到一个小孩光着脚,纳闷地...
评分翻译完一天的定量之后我会看一些中文书,言几又的空调很冷,在书店里坐到下午错过一顿午饭的饥饿比起全年中有52%的日子里没有食物来源尼日利亚妇女们的饥饿只有望尘莫及。 这本书使得我在书店这样的公开场合又哭又笑,卢旺达遭遇种族主义者的图西族少女克劳丁与姐姐被关进强奸...
