Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Women of Beauty and Heroism: From Semiramis to Eugenie; A Portrait Gallery of Female Loveliness, Achievement and Influence In Syria under the name of Berceto, and widely respected for her chastity, had the misfortune to displease that most irritable divinity, Venus, who straightway resolved on vengeance. The catalogue of ways and means in her possession seems to have been, in every system of mythology, exceedingly limited and it is not surprising to find the Assyrian Venus resorting, in the poverty of her resources, to the universal and infallible passion - Love thus setting the example to which the Venus of Paphos afterwards so consistently adhered. Berceto loved, and not wisely she gave birth to a female infant, which she abandoned upon the deserts of Ascalon; then, obeying an impulse which seems to have been usual in these guilty legendary mothers, she slew her betrayer, and threw herself headlong into a lake. The eter-nal fitness of things is beautifully consulted in the disposition made of her by the fable - she was changed, either by assimila tion or metempsychosis, into a fish. Now, fish are cold-blooded, as every one knows, and being oviparous, leave their young to take care of themselves. The legend, having thus given to the parent an integument consistent with her nature, returns to the deserted babe.

Book excerpt: "Heroic acts of women throughout history have been ignored, misinterpreted, and maligned. For example, Miriam Polster contrasts the condemnation of Eve with the admiration for Prometheus, although each defied the gods and gave humanity knowledge. Polster reveals that our understanding of heroism in society is entrenched in archaic male archetypes that are potentially destructive and often irrelevant to our daily lives." "Offering a positive approach to the psychology of women, Polster explains why we must celebrate the heroism of women, from Eve to the champions of everyday life - the single mother in night school, the female scientist in a male-dominated field, the victim of harassment demanding justice. Drawing on case examples from her private practice as well as mythology, biblical commentary, and anthropology, she shows how a different, unheralded kind of heroism - the heroism of women - is more attuned to the real social and psychological needs of women, men, and children today." "Polster shows how women and men, in confronting their own daily struggles, need not be limited to stereotypical male heroism, but can rely on their innate and unique strengths and qualities - as women heroes have done for centuries - to embody true heroism, achieve goals, and realize self-fulfillment."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
