Women, Politics, and American Society - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Completely updated, this engaging text provides a comprehensive exploration of the efforts, achievements, as well as the set-backs involved in the movements toward equality for American women. Exploring three basic themes-political rights and realities, employment and educational rights and realities, and familial and reproductive rights and realities-Women, Politics, and American Society first traces the efforts of women to achieve rights in those areas and then tries to answer the question of why women still fall short of full equality. This lucid text offers excellent historical material, giving students the background necessary to truly understand women's struggles today. The third edition brings everything completely up-to-date with the most current data and discussions available.
