Margaret Walters did a B.Litt at Oxford, went on to lecture in English at Reading University for 20 years, and is now a freelance writer and reviewer: she is currently working on a book entitled Femme Fatale for Cape, and she reviews for the TLS and the Sunday Times.
This is an historical account of feminism, looking at the roots of feminism, voting rights, the liberation of the sixties, and analysing the current situation of women, across Europe and the United States, and elsewhere in the world (in particular in Third World countries). Walters examines the difficulties and inequities that women still face, more than forty years after the 'new wave' of 1960s feminism -- difficulties, particularly, in combining domesticity, motherhood and work outside the house. How much have women's lives really changed? In the West women still come up against the 'glass ceiling' at work, most earning considerably less than their male counterparts.

最近狂迷VSI係列,這本主要是講述UK的女權進程的,還是非常值得一讀的,會消除很多對女權的誤會。

评分第一波爭取平等的civil right ,第二波是private life,hmmm,後續被批評是white middle class的。。。不過我還是不太懂到底啥是feminism。。。不過作者提到的新一代女性對女權有時候刻意躲避倒是真的,女權有時候確實是被汙名化瞭。。。
评分還不錯!居然沒有淪為查單詞運動,同時還是提到瞭不少以前沒聽說過的人的。。考慮去藉further reading裏麵列舉的一些書瞭
