Women Literary Critics
A woman is an adult female human. Prior to adulthood, a female human is referred to as a girl (a female child or adolescent). The plural ''women'' is sometimes used in certain phrases such as "women's rights" to denote female humans regardless of age. Typically, women inherit a pair of X chromosomes, one from each parent, and are capable of pregnancy and giving birth from puberty until menopause. More generally, sex differentiation of the female fetus is governed by the lack of a present, or functioning, SRY-gene on either one of the respective sex chromosomes. Female anatomy is distinguished from male anatomy by the female reproductive system, which includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and vulva. A fully developed woman generally has a wider pelvis, broader hips, and larger breasts than an adult man. Women have significantly less facial and other body hair, have a higher body fat composition, and are on average shorter and less muscular than men. Throug ...

Le Matin De Paris
''Le Matin de Paris'' was a French daily newspaper, founded on 1 March 1977 by Claude Perdriel, and disappearing in 1987 ("dépôt de bilan" on 6 May). Its foundation is the subject of the documentary ''Numéros zéro'' by Raymond Depardon. History The daily of the ''Nouvel Observateur'' Founded in 1977 by the chief executive of ''Le Nouvel Observateur'', ''Le Matin de Paris'' shared its director, capital, journalists and structures with Jean Daniel's weekly paper. These links were at first capitalistic in nature in which, by the bias of the SA ''Le Nouvel Observateur du Monde'' (with 2 million Francs) or by that of its CEO Claude Perdriel (with 2.24 million Francs), the weekly and its director controlled 53% of its initial capital. Later, in February 1978, ''Le Nouvel Observateur'' put 1 750 000 francs at ''Le Matins disposal, constituting new financial assistance opposed by the personnel of ''Le Nouvel Observateur''. This financial support was brought about on the daily new ...

Découvertes Gallimard
(, ; in United Kingdom: ''New Horizons'', in United States: ''Abrams Discoveries'') is an Collection (publishing), editorial collection of Book illustration, illustrated monographic books published by the Éditions Gallimard in Pocket edition, pocket format. The books are concise introductions to particular subjects, intended for a general audience but written by experts. Created in the style of ''livre d'art'', the collection is based on an abundant pictorial documentation and a way of bringing together visual documents and texts, enhanced by printing on coated paper, as commented in ''L'Express'', "genuine monographs, published like art books".
