Surprisingly, Brooks finds that male and female politicians are subject to similar expectations from voters, suggesting that our widespread belief in a double standard is an impediment to encouraging more women to run for office. Good news seldom makes headlines, but Brooks' findings need to be widely disseminated.\"\u003cb\u003e--Diana Mutz, University of Pennsylvania\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This is one of the most important books about gender and politics written in the last twenty-five years.
