Psychologist's analysis of "Women and Economics" March 31, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Gilman's book and her ideas on the role of women in the struggles of all humans for equality and liberty are as relevant in the 21st century as they were in the 19th. The book should be on the reference shelf of every policy maker and used as a basic book on government and political science. Her personal struggles are shared by many women and men who face the devastating effects of inequality and the abuse of liberty by others who seek the "four creatures of greed and power: fame, fortune, lust, and luxury". Gilman's message is that women (and men) should be careful to not copy the behavior of other men and other women who have sought these "four creatures".
A Great Feminist Work May 11, 1998 1 out of 8 found this review helpful
Gilman shows the reader she is going with men in the workplace , but wants to show women are just as hard or harder workers at home than the men outside of the house. She wants to show how men think women are weaklings and she shows them wrong with her strong words against the put down of a man.
