"This book may be treated as a clarion call for women to participate in the political governance of the world in a massive way. Unless women choose to intervene in governance, a peaceful, warless world will remain a pipe dream.
The author claims that women and men are fifty/fifty by population count. But when it comes to governance, men are preponderant. On a lighter vein, he charges women with dereliction of duty! Without the intervention of women in governance, the author claims, it is impossible to maintain a peaceful world. War is a vestige, like an appendix in the body that has to be surgically removed and women are the surgeons, he claims.
In pre-historical times, might was right. But, today, the most extraordinary thing has been achieved by mankind – that of institutionalizing political power. Power today stands institutionalized as against might being right! Gender-neutral offices have been created! When we say 'Office of the President of America' it simply means a position without any reference to gender specification. A woman can occupy the position with the same ease with which men can. Hence, now is the right time for women to participate in governance in a major way."
