Description

Apple Sex, Drugs, Motherhood and the Recovery of the Feminine by Antonella Gambotto-Burke is a thought-provoking exploration of our culture's governing principles. The author deconstructs two centuries of history to reveal how we are moving towards an era where femininity may be erased if we do not change. Gambotto-Burke skillfully draws together diverse threads, from personal experiences to broad societal trends and cutting-edge scientific research, to construct a thesis that medicinal and recreational drugs have rewired our bodies and brains. This book sheds new light on addiction, art, drug use, homosexuality, murder, pornography, sex, war, and the significance of birth, infancy, and motherhood in human existence. By challenging patriarchal ideologies, Gambotto-Burke offers a devastating critique that has marred billions of lives. Her work completely revises our understanding of these complex issues, leaving readers with a fresh perspective on the world.
