As a primary male role model in a girl's life, a father influences his daughter in profound ways, from the way she defines her female identity to what she expects from men. Adamick offers a wise and witty handbook for dads, suggesting ways to raise girls who won't settle for second-class-citizenship. He highlights not just the ways that girls and boys are treated differently but how the roles of moms and dads are shaped by society, too. -- adapted from back cover
