Reviews

[Lynn Davidman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great book by a well-known and highly respected feminist historian.

[Starbubbles · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book covers a wide range of topics while discussing the changes taking place in the feminist movement. This book covers topics like the history of pyschology, social science, education, anthropology...
The topics overlap nicely with eachother painting a nice picture of the changing challenges for feminists in the late 19th and early 20th century.

Quick and highly interesting read...an examination of women scholars who contributed to biological and anthropological understandings of gender.
