I approached this set with great anticipation, and was finding the first CD really interesting. However, to my dismay, at the end of the first CD Johnson says that the myths that he is talking about have applied historically only to men, and that, as a man, he can only speak for men. Women may have a different path, he says. Whether this is true or not, as a woman I lost interest.
