About this book
The women's rights movement grew out of the women's suffrage movement of the mid-1800s and also addressed other women's legal rights issues. The second wave of the movement, which promoted economic, political, and social equality, gained momentum in the 1960s and '70s, when such groups as the National Organization for Women fought for equal pay and laws banning employment discrimination. Today, the movement is in its third wave, fighting against sexual harassment and assault as well as for greater representation in the media, in nontraditional professions, and in politics. Clearly written, highly visual, and bolstered by a chronology, bibliography, and suggestions for further reading, The Women's Rights Movement, Revised Edition is an illuminating introduction to one of the most prominent reform movements of the last 60 years.
