DESCRIPTION:
From the Publisher This is the first text to provide a comprehensive exploration of where women are today in America, how they got to this point, and what changes still need to be made before full equality can be reached.
"An Excellent, Updated Survey of the Women's Movement" according to Richard A. Birdsall. This just-updated history of the women's movement is an excellent introduction to the field. The book surveys the 150-year history of the movement and provides lots of good-looking graphs and tables of the current situation.I use this book in my 2000-level course on race, gender and politics and find it very readable for my mostly 1st- and 2nd-year students. The students like the book as well.If you want a well-organized, readable, and current survey of the movement and the current status of women in America, I wholly recommend this book..
