The Sexes In Science And History - Eliza Burt Gamble - Bog

The Sexes In Science And History: An Inquiry Into The Dogma Of Woman�������s Inferiority To Man, written by Eliza Burt Gamble in 1916, is a book that delves into the longstanding belief that women are inferior to men. Gamble explores this belief from a scientific and historical perspective, examining the various ways in which women have been oppressed and marginalized throughout history. She argues that this belief is not based on any real evidence, but rather on social and cultural biases that have been passed down from generation to generation.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the issue. Gamble begins by examining the biological differences between men and women, arguing that these differences do not necessarily make one sex superior to the other. She goes on to explore the ways in which women have been excluded from the scientific and intellectual spheres throughout history, and how this has contributed to the belief in their inferiority.Gamble also looks at the various ways in which women have been oppressed in different cultures and societies, including the ways in which they have been denied education and economic opportunities. She argues that these factors have contributed to the perpetuation of the belief in women's inferiority.Throughout the book, Gamble uses a range of historical and scientific evidence to support her arguments. She also draws on her own personal experiences as a woman living in a male-dominated society.Overall, The Sexes In Science And History is a powerful and thought-provoking book that challenges the long-held belief in women's inferiority.
