Why (Some) Women Should Govern

From the NYTimes:
Kathryn Pearson, an expert on Congress at the University of Minnesota: her studies of the House show women introduce more bills, participate more vigorously in key legislative debates.
From the Harper Collins website for the book “Why Women Should Rule the World” by Dee Dee Myers:
Reflecting on her own tenure in the Clinton administration and her work as a political analyst, media commentator, and former consultant to NBC’s The West Wing, Myers assesses the crucial but long-ignored strengths that female leaders bring to the table. “Women tend to be better communicators, better listeners, better at forming consensus,” Myers argues. In a highly competitive and increasingly fractious world, women possess the kind of critical problem-solving skills that are urgently needed to break down barriers, build understanding, and create the best conditions for peace.
