Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This pioneering work tackles a key question: why are there so many more female Christians than male? The author, a respected figure in 19th-century America, investigates the enigma with impressive logic and a wealth of evidence. He dismisses the shallow argument that women are more superstitious and therefore more susceptible to religious appeals, instead presenting a meticulously researched case that points to society's starkly different treatment of the sexes. The author's insights expose the ways in which men are subject to more corrupting influences, from their greater exposure to vice and temptation to the corrosive effects of excessive business and political involvement. This book offers a powerful and prescient critique of the social norms that shape gender roles, and its provocative ideas continue to resonate today.
