Abstract

We are constantly evolving, society is modernizing and most are beginning to accept change, but nevertheless we still strongly have a model to relate to the two genders (male and female) well inoculated within our culture and way of thinking. The volume ”Bărbatul şi femeia : imaginea unei polemici cu privire la echitatea de gen” [The man and the woman. The image of a controversy regarding gender equity], published by Lumen Publishing House from Iași, Romania, in 2017, manages, under the guidance of professor Iulian Apostu and Cristina Georgiana Petrescu, to analyze a lot of subjects that are still very topical and outline both genres socially, psychologically and scientifically. The volume contains an introduction, four chapters, conclusions, a references list and an appendix. The themes of this book are focused on both genres and how they coexist or come into conflict. The introduction reveals the intention and motivation of the study in broad terms, such as the desire to observe how men relate to women's emancipation.
