Offered here is a rare first edition and first printing of Adam's Rib: A Defense of Modern Woman by Ruth Herschberger, published by Pellegrini & Cudahy in 1948. This is a scarce hardcover edition with its original dust jacket, making it a notable find for collectors of feminist literature and mid-century American social commentary. The book itself is in Near Fine condition, with a tight binding and hinges, and the text is attractive, clean, and unmarked throughout. There is a previous price in pencil on the top of the front endpaper, but otherwise the interior is very well preserved. The edges of the textblock show a few very small, minor blemishes, and there is a bit of spotting on the spine fabric of the hardcover. The dust jacket is housed in a protective Demco mylar book jacket cover. The jacket itself is in Poor+ condition, with many small holes along the surface and some large chunks missing, though it remains in one piece. The jacket spine ink is rubbed off in many spots, and there are dampstains and other blemishes on the surface. The jacket flaps are in good shape, except for the tips of the top edges, which are mostly ripped off. Adam's Rib is a pioneering feminist work that challenged the prevailing scientific and cultural narratives about women in the mid-20th century. Ruth Herschberger, a biologist and poet, used sharp wit and rigorous analysis to critique the essentialist reductionism that defined women's roles in society, arguing that womanhood was a social construct rather than a biological destiny. Her work prefigured and influenced later feminist thinkers, including Simone de Beauvoir, and is recognized as a foundational text in the history of feminist thought.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Originally published in 1948 this classic book by the feminist critic and poet Ruth Herschberger was one of an early wave of mid-century texts (along with Simon de Beauvoir's Second Sex) that reframed the supposedly neutral world of science into a minefield of male-centered bias. Herschberger advocated for the need to correct a vision of science emerging only from the male point of view which reinforced the idea that females of all species represented a deviation from the universal (male) norm. The book analyses the anti-feminine sex-role stereotypes, both implicit and explicit.
