For a textbook on women’s history, issues, etc this was pretty good. Some of it was a little dense/ lengthy in the passages, and the discussion questions were okay. I loved the majority of the selections and the way it flowed and the subject matter of it. I feel like there could’ve been more meat to it however, such as more context given and a heartier explanation. I might just feel this way because I read it independently for fun rather than having it guided by a college course / professor

Enables you to articulate the answers to questions (about women's issues) you have been dieing to answer but didn't know how.
