"Ms. Hvistendahl is a first-rate reporter and has filled Unnatural Selection with gripping details.... There is so much to recommend." -- Wall Street Journal "An important ... bracing work of investigative reporting ... As news of these (gender) imbalances has spread, many have blamed ancient India's patriarchal social systems, for instance, or Chinese beliefs that only boys provide for ageing parents. Hvistendahl's research puts the lie to these lazy claims." -- Financial Times
"Massively well-documented.... A disturbing, engrossing book." -- Washington Post
"It might be the most important book written about women in years." -- Slate
