I disagree.
Let's say I want to suggest a friend might enjoy a certain memoir - whose author is female, is a former African president, but I can't recall her name or the title of her memoir. My Authors library would help me find Ellen Brown Sirleaf, and provide a link to her works in my Books library where I would find "This Child Will Be Great".

What does your response have to do with my posts? Are you suggesting that you would never forget the name of a male author? If not, then scrolling through the Authors list in hopes of recognizing the author's name would be applicable to any author regardless of gender, ethnicity, etc. If so, well, shame on you.
