In this classic study of women in Britain from the Puritan
revolution of the mid-seventeenth century to the 1930s, Sheila
Rowbotham shows how class and sex, work and the family, personal
life and social pressures have shaped and hindered women's
struggles for equality. She explores the different effects that
changes in the process of production have on middle-class and
working-class women; why birth control and the organisation of
working women have been perceived as threatening to traditional
male control of the family; how paid work and work in the home are
intricately related and determine the social valuation of women -
and why these and many other issues have continued to arise in
different form throughout modern history.
