Lisa Bloom, author of Think: Straight Talk for Women to Stay Smart in a Dumbed-Down World

Award winning journalist, television legal analyst, trial attorney and daughter of renowned women’s rights attorney Gloria Allred, Lisa Bloom, publishes her first book book, Think: Straight Talk for Women to Stay Smart in a Dumbed-Down World (Vanguard Press; June 1, 2011; ISBN: 978-1-59315-659-6; $25.99; Hardcover), which boldly argues that the women of today represent a stark paradox. In Think, Lisa showcases that while girls and women shine in many areas (such as outperforming boys at every level of education, preschool through grad school); they have concurrently lost focus and even regressed in some frightening ways. At a time when 23% of women would rather lose their ability to read than their figures, Lisa fears that women are in danger of spiraling into a nation of dumbed-down, tabloid media-obsessed, reality TV addicts. For example, the majority of us can’t name a single branch of government, but nearly everyone can name at least one Kardashian. In this entertaining, eye-opening and thoroughly-researched new book, Lisa outlines the ways that we as a society, and particularly women, have allowed our brains to atrophy and, very specifically, outlines the damage our ignorance is causing to our personal lives, our nation, and our world.
