About

A revolutionary argument for women's equality that helped lay the foundations of modern feminist thought. 

First published in 1792, Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman challenges the social conventions that denied women the same educational and intellectual opportunities as men. Rejecting the belief that women were naturally inferior, Wollstonecraft argues that differences in achievement arise largely from unequal access to education and the restrictive expectations imposed by society. 

With sharp reasoning and passionate conviction, she examines marriage, morality, independence and the importance of educating women to become thoughtful, capable participants in public and family life. 

A landmark work of political philosophy and women's rights advocacy, this enduring classic invites readers to reconsider the relationship between education, equality and personal freedom. 

Presented in a 2021 hardcover edition from 1828 Press, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman remains essential reading for students of history, philosophy, feminism and social change.
