Beskrivelse
For students, teachers and curious minds, our carefully structured jargon-free series helps you really get to grips with brilliant intellectuals and their inherently complex theories. Written in an accessible and engaging way, each book takes you through the life and influences of these great thinkers, then takes a deep dive into three of their key theories in plain English. Smart thinking made easy!
Feminist activist, author and social psychologist Betty Friedan was one of the most disruptive, era-defining voices of the 20th century. Her best-known work, The Feminine Mystique, is hailed as 'the book that started second-wave feminism'. But who was she? What did she say? And where did those ground-breaking ideas come from? This book begins by telling the story of Friedan's life and times, giving the reader a unique insight into her rebellious character and the conservative world in which she lived. It then examines her most revolutionary ideas and political battles, before going on to examine her trailblazing activism and its continuing legacies.
