About this book

Published in 1869 and shaped by years of discussion with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill, this essay makes the case that the legal and social subordination of women is both unjust and a drag on human progress. Mill argues that no one can claim women are naturally inferior when they have never been free to develop on their own terms. He compares the marriage laws of his day to a form of bondage, calls for equal access to education and work, and insists that a society denying half its members full citizenship harms everyone. Bold for its time, it became a founding text of liberal feminism.
