Has the battle for women's rights been won? As Niki van der Gaag points out, it is easy to forget just how recently so many womens rights have been won; and how many women still face violations of their rights on a daily basis. In this No-Nonsense Guide, van der Gaag offers a status report on the women of the world by examining issues like health, poverty, politics, law, education, the environment, violence, and sexuality. And although we are not yet living in a post-feminist world and change is slow in coming, it is coming.
