520			_aBy attaining more and more education, and thus gaining entry to a wider variety of jobs and more economic independence, American women have proved that the centuries-old subjection of women to men was never rooted in biological differences. Prof. Falk, a senior academic, discusses the evolution in American society, providing hard data more than essayistic assertions. He also considers where we have made progress and where there is still room to improve, then examines how young people are being led astray by today's liberal attitudes toward sex, the promotion of rampant alcohol and drug use, and a focus on rights and privileges while we fail to pass on any sense of responsibility, duty, or obligations.
