The Art of Being a Woman

Book excerpt: The Art of Being a Woman is an eye opening discussion about the many topics modern day women face. As the title suggests, this book is about the daily practices and lifelong discoveries that become an "art form" distinct to each woman. The individual and her needs are emphasized, as opposed to a "one size fits all" approach. A multitude of women, all ages and ethnicities, were interviewed to get a broad perspective on a variety of issues relating to the female gender, such as health and beauty, relationships, cooking, and self-respect. This book is a practical, yet passionate, rendering of a combination of these factors that so many current publications try to isolate. Womanhood is about the culmination, not separation, of all of these aspects.
