The twentieth century saw female roles change more rapidly than during any other period of history. In 1900 women were domestic creatures, wives, mothers, workers and ornaments. Some had long sought new rights and freedoms. In the course of a turbulent century--which included two World Wars and an explosion in technology and communications-women gained a vote and a voice, and by 2000 had permeated almost every male bastion from the workplace to the corridors of power. This illustrated survey charts that incredible journey. It takes us from the suffragettes to the war workers; from the "Women`s Libbers" to the modern executive. Changing roles are examined, as well as the causes and agents of change. Real women from all walks of life are featured in anecdotes from sources including the National Archives.
