{"product_id":"9781580053808","title":"No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think about Power","description":"Feminist  icon Gloria Feldt pulls no punches in this new book, which argues that  the most confounding problem facing women today isn't that doors of  opportunity aren't open, but that not enough women are walking through  them. From the boardroom to the bedroom, public office to personal  relationships, she asserts that nobody is keeping women from  parity-except themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeldt puts women's power into an  historical context, showing the ways in which women have made huge leaps  forward in the past, only to pull back right when they were at the  threshold. Feldt argues that there's no excuse-whether it's the way  women are socialized, or pressure to conform, or work\/life balance  issues-for women today not to own their power. Women are still facing  unequal pay, being passed over for promotions, entering public office at  a much lesser rate than men, and oftentimes still struggling with  traditional power dynamics in their interpersonal relationships. Feldt's  solution to all these places where women face inequality is the same:  we need to shift the way we think to achieve true parity with our male  counterparts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNo Excuses\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into nine chapters  that organized around how women can change the way they think, and  therefore the way they act. These include: Know Your History and You Can  Create the Future of Your Choice; Define the Terms-First; Embrace  Controversy; Employ Every Medium; and other helpful ideas for using the  tools and resources women already have to create the changes they want  to see. \u003ci\u003eNo Excuses\u003c\/i\u003e is a timely and invaluable book to help women equalize gender power in politics, work, and love.","brand":"Da Capo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47179198497008,"sku":"9781580053808","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781580053808_p0.jpg?v=1763799413","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781580053808","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
