This work is both an examination of the role of women in society historically, and an interpretation of the place of women in modern society. "Although women do not constitute a numerical minority, their status in modern Western society has largely been a subordinate one. They have been encultured to avoid competition with men and to take satisfaction in their roles as wives and mothers. With equality of educational opportunities and a labor market that requires mental rather than sheer physical abilities, more women have been reexamining their positions . ". Seller Inventory # 12194
