Men vs. Women vs. Alienoids.

Actually the book should get 3.5 stars ,but when dealing with A.E.Van Vogt i'm rounding up.It becomes known ,plotwize ,that there are a few alienoids of different races on earth ,all in a delicate political ballance. The Deeans are waiting for they're ship to come and conquer Earth.Another issue is the Man-Woman thing. I'm affraid that a feminst would not like this book. Van Vogt try's to explain women behavior in a set of actions and reactions ,which are not only simple ,but are not very convincing. This is really ,i think this book's down side. I don't believe ,notice ,that he's a real chaouvinist ,but Van-Vogt is known in his wonderfull behavioral theories in his books ,that even when they are obvieously wrong ,they are beuatifully structured. This time it simply did'nt come off right.The book is not as idea filled as others of the same manufacteror ,but all in all ,not really bad too. I would put it in the same class as "The mind cage" and "Moonbeast".
