Synopsis
Megan Amram showcases her mordant wit and gift for parody in Science...For Her!, a laugh-until-you-can't-breathe, faux-expert compendium of scientific knowledge that is vital for the female population. Part hilarious farce, part biting gender commentary, Amram blends science and Cosmo to highlight the absurd way in which women are still portrayed in both arenas. Operating under the conceit that 'science is hard enough for most people, let alone women,' Amram tackles crucial scientific topics like Biology: This Spring's Ten Most Glamorous Ways to Die; Earth Science: Fashion Staples for Each Step of Global Warming; and the most pressing issue facing women today, kale! Combining off-beat humour and mock expertise, Science...For Her! is a satirical gem of the gender stereotypes in the world of science, glossy magazine culture, and society in general.
