Women and power. Manifesto

Britain's leading scholar of classical antiquity, Mary Bird, explores the cultural underpinnings of misogyny by looking at women's public voice, our cultural assumptions about women's relationship to power, and how strong women resist the imposition of male stereotypes.

The book "Women and Power: A Manifesto" opens the way for discussion of issues of equality, cooperation and reconciliation. It provides the basis for building a peaceful and stable society where the participation of women in the process of power and decision-making is an important aspect.
