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.

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.

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...
评分之前我就閱讀過許多與落後國家福利政策有關的書籍,但這還是頭一次閱讀以女性為主題的報導文學。雖然台灣也有婦女受虐的新聞,不過跟這本書提到的內容比根本是小事一樁,而國內推動婦女人權運動的廣告也不是太積極。 我想,兩性平權的教育還是有必要持續下去,並且在世界各地...
