Breasts have been bared, flaunted, measured, inflated, suckled, pierced, tassled -- and in every way fetishized by our society. Host and science journalist Florence Williams delves deeper into the mysteries of the human breast with funny and enlightening reporting. She tackles the big questions of why they evolved in the first place, how jet fuel ended up in breast milk, why they are arriving earlier and bigger in teen-aged girls, man boobs, and how breast cancer in men can help female breast cancer patients.

Florence Delay nous entraîne dans une délicieuse promenade au château de Fontainebleau, au temps de la cour de France de François 1er à celle d'Henri IV, pour donner vie et parole aux déesses, Diane chasseresses, nymphes et dames qui l'habitent, peintes et sculptées par les artistes italiens Rosso et Primatice. Empruntant l'art et la manière de Marguerite de Navarre, dont elle a lu et relu "L'Heptaméron", Florence Delay nous fait revivre, de tableau en tableau, toute la beauté de la Renaissance.

Les femmes n'ont jamais été aussi proches du pouvoir, elles sortent plus diplômées que les hommes des universités et les récentes.
