How big are the psychological differences between men and women? Modern researchers in the field of gender psychology debate the scale of the notorious differences, but unanimously agree on one thing: such differences exist. And they are not so much the result of the upbringing of each of us within the framework of a certain gender model of behavior, but rather the product of an extremely long, not even centuries-old, but rather million-year evolution, going back to the primitive sources of human nature. In the new book of the modern Russian political scientist and psychologist Natalia Eliseeva, this the problem is analyzed on the basis of the biographies of women from different eras, cultures and religions who successfully led countries and empires in the highest government positions in the Middle Ages, Modern and Contemporary times. The book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in the problems of domestic politics and the role of women in world and Russian history. The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
