Synopsis

"A Brief History of Feminism" Who were the first feminists? How many women's lives has feminism really changed? How does this trend of thought differ in different cultural contexts today? In this brief history, Margaret Waters looks at the development of feminism, tracing back to its roots, exploring major issues such as women's suffrage, the women's liberation movement in the 1960s, and whether feminist ideas still have value today. She talked from Europe to the United States and then to the Third World. By analyzing the current situation of women around the world, she showed us the latest results of feminist research.

Reader comments

This book gave me a deeper understanding of feminism. I like the descriptions of feminists in different historical periods in the book. I admire their struggle and persistence. However, I don't really like the theoretical explanations in some chapters, which feel a bit obscure. Overall, this is a book worth reading and will give you a new understanding of women's rights.
