[Daria · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent compilation of key works reflecting the development of women question. Need to have this at home in print for quick reference.

[Fabiola Miranda · Rating 5 out of 5]

A compilation of summaries of a bunch of historical figures and their negative or positive opinion on women. Most of them were philosophers, if I remember correctly. Quick read and very interesting.
