- Description
- Covers the evolution of women's status in the world by focusing on media, politics, and society in China from the late 19th century through the Cultural Revolution. Examines how women were courted as important consumers, viewed through advertising, acknowledged because of scientific discoveries as biologically fundamental to the human species, and connected to truth as real beings in history and the consequences for current feminist calls for justice.
