Shakespeare Reference in Sizing Up People

Nearly every book I read contains at least one Shakespeare reference. Sizing Up People, written by Donald A. Laird and Eleanor C. Laird, is no exception. In a chapter on the differences between the genders, there is a reference to Cymbeline: “‘Who is’t can read a woman?’ Shakespeare asked” (p. 166). That is a question that Cymbeline asks Cornelius in Act V Scene v.

Sizing Up People was originally published in 1951. The edition I read was the McGraw-Hill Paperback Edition from 1964.
