Cover of The flight from woman

The flight from woman

A study of the polarity of the sexes as reflected in the conflict between two modes of knowledge — scientific or rational, as contrasted with the intuitive or poetic. In exploring this rich theme, the author undertakes psychological portraits of six representative figures whose thought and work have influenced modern man.
