Paperback. An account of the "war" against women, the insidiously manipulated political and cultural backlash against the hard-won equality and independence which women achieved in the 1970s and 1980s. Using examples from all areas of public life, Faludi presents a picture of the erosion of women's status. Num Pages: 608 pages. BIC Classification: JFFK. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 199 x 128 x 38. Weight in Grams: 430.
What has made women unhappy in the last decade? Faludi writes 'is not their equality' - which they don't yet have - but the rising pressure to halt, even worse, women's quest for that equality.
