Book Overview

""Criminals, Idiots, Women And Minors"" is a book written by Frances Power Cobbe, first published in 1869. The book is a critique of the legal and social injustices faced by four groups of people - criminals, idiots (people with intellectual disabilities), women, and minors (children). In the book, Cobbe argues that these groups are often treated unfairly and are denied basic rights and freedoms. She discusses the ways in which the legal system and society at large discriminate against them, and offers suggestions for how these injustices can be rectified.Cobbe's arguments are based on her own experiences as a social reformer and activist, as well as her extensive research into the legal and social issues faced by these groups. She draws on examples from history and contemporary society to illustrate her points, and offers a thoughtful and nuanced analysis of the issues at hand.Overall, ""Criminals, Idiots, Women And Minors"" is an important work of social criticism that sheds light on the injustices faced by some of the most vulnerable members of society. It is a powerful call to action for those who seek to create a more just and equitable world.Criminals, Idiots, Women, And Minors. Is The Classification Sound?
