Questions
For centuries, society has accepted male dominance as natural to the human species. But what would our understanding of gender inequality—its imagined past and its controversial present—be if we didn’t believe that men have always dominated women?
In this bold and radical book, science journalist Angela Saini explores the roots of what we call patriarchy: how it first took hold in societies and spread across the globe from prehistoric times to the present.
Saini travels to the oldest known human settlements, analyzes the latest research, and traces cultural and political histories, arguing that colonialism and empires have profoundly changed the way people live in Asia, Africa, and the Americas, spreading rigid patriarchal customs and undermining the way people organize their families and work.
In our time, despite the fight against sexism, violence, and discrimination, even revolutionary efforts to achieve equality often end in failure.
