About this Item
First edition/printing. Book is in Near Fine condition and the (scarce and not price clipped) jacket is in Very Good condition! "The protagonist of The Coming of the Amazons: A Satiristic Speculation on the Scientific Future of Civilization (1931) finds, on awakening in 2181 CE from Suspended Animation, that women rule and that a simple sex-role reversal between the sexes (see Gender) is enough to account for (to him) hugely humiliating changes in masculine behaviour. He resists this new world vigorously, but without much success. Unlike most stories from this era on this theme, the book treats women with some sympathy." - John Clute, The Encyclopedia of SF, 3rd Edition/Internet. Seller Inventory # 001288
