The Feminine Mystique is a groundbreaking book by Betty Friedan, first published by Penguin Books Ltd in 2010. This influential piece of literature belongs to the genre of social science and feminism. Betty Friedan, a leading figure in the women's movement in the United States, her book is often credited with sparking the second wave of American feminism in the 20th century. The Feminine Mystique explores the idea of women finding personal fulfillment outside of their traditional roles. It's a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the social structures that shape our lives. Penguin Books Ltd is proud to have been part of bringing this important work to the public.
'What if she isn't happy - does she think men are happy in this world? Doesn't she know how lucky she is to be a woman?'The pioneering Betty Friedan here identifies the strange problem plaguing American housewives, and examines the malignant role advertising plays in perpetuating the myth of the 'happy housewife heroine'.Penguin Modern: fifty new books celebrating the pioneering spirit of the iconic Penguin Modern Classics series, with each one offering a concentrated hit of its contemporary, international flavour. Here are authors ranging from Kathy Acker to James Baldwin, Truman Capote to Stanislaw Lem and George Orwell to Shirley Jackson; essays radical and inspiring; poems moving and disturbing; stories surreal and fabulous; taking us from the deep South to modern Japan, New York's underground scene to the farthest reaches of outer space.
First published in 1981, this book is eerily prescient and timely. Warning the women's movement against dissolving into factionalism, male-bashing, and preoccupation with sexual and identity politics rather than bottom-line political and economic inequalities, the problem Friedan identifies is as real now as it was years ago
First published in 1976, this modern feminist classic brings back years of struggle for those who were there, and recreates the past for readers who were not yet born during these struggles for opportunity and respect to which women can now feel entitled. In changing women's lives, the women's movement has changed everything.
