For the next book club we will be reading Half the Sky by NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF and SHERYL WuDUNN. As some of you may know, Karina is working on an exhibition based on the book which is scheduled to open at the Skirball next fall. We will not only learn more about women's issues in developing nations, but we also help Karina with exhibition themes. Below is a link to an essay which appeared in the NY Times Magazine in August 2009 which is based on the book. Let's make sure that 100% of us at least read the article!

Cheers,
