Beyond separate spheres : intellectual roots of modern feminism / Rosalind Rosenberg.

Summary:

This book sheds new light on the intellectual roots of modern feminism by examining the connections between social science and the feminist roles which replaced the ideal of 'true womanhood' with the 'new woman' at the turn of the 20th century. It also provides an irrefutable indictment of an academic world that systematically excluded talented women from treaching posts while allowing their male mentors to lay claim to their pioneering scholarship.
