Condition: good Dust Jacket Condition: Hardcover Dust Jacket Included About the Author At the end of the 1950s, Colette Gouvion, a very young journalist and already a mother, joined L'Express, at the time the magazine for all commitments, headed by an indisputable woman Françoise Giroud. She took charge of the "society" section. For women, everything was to clear away contraception, professional training, wage parity, political or social commitments, change in male mentalities. This was at the center of his concerns. Today, her activities are divided between the press, in particular GEO, and publishing where she has published numerous essays, stories, novels published by Flammarion du Rouergue and Solar. Pascale Senk was a reporter for France Inter and Radio France Internationale, notably on the program "Les unes les autres", the magazine for women around the world. She has been a journalist for Psychologies magazine for ten years, where she specializes in society, new therapies and spirituality. She is also the author of several essays on addiction to alcohol, drugs, or in the couple, and on feminine energy according to Taoist philosophy. She has the rare talent to deal with all subjects relating to love and sexuality without prevarication but without ever shocking. Sylvie Schweitzer was one of the first generation of French women to use all the new rights granted to women in the second half of the 20th century. An active mother, academic, historian specializing in work and women, she has published Women have always worked. A history of women's work, 19th-20th century (editions Odile Jacob) where she traces the stages of these slow advances towards equality in work and society. At Lyon-2 University, she directs work on these themes and is responsible for student mobility in twelve European universities. Joëlle Kauffmann-Brunerie is a gynecologist. For more than thirty years, spent for a large part: part in a hospital environment, she treats, follows, listens to women of all origins, participates in humanitarian missions. An activist for just causes, she fought as much for the legalization of contraception and the voluntary termination of pregnancy as for the League for Human Rights, of which she was vice-president.

This is a very large book, and not just width wise. It is very tall too. There are many pictures, a lot of them in color. They have some of the rarest flops featured toward the back of the book, and the classics are all here too. Some high points are the run-through of how they make (made) "Annie" run every night. There is also a synopsis of "Hello Dolly" which helpful since I have only seen the movie. There is a flaw though, and it is not insignificant. The author does not separate fact from opinion. Example: "Sweeney Todd...
