Purchase Of Women, Part 1: The Great Economic Blunder (1887)

By Elizabeth Blackwell

Book Overview

""Purchase Of Women, Part 1: The Great Economic Blunder"" was written by Elizabeth Blackwell and published in 1887. The book discusses the economic disadvantages and discrimination faced by women in society during the late 19th century. Blackwell argues that the traditional gender roles and expectations placed on women have led to their economic oppression and that women should have the right to own property and have equal access to education and job opportunities. She also criticizes the practice of women being viewed as property and being bought and sold in marriage. The book is a call to action for women's rights and economic equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
