Summary:

Since the second-wave feminism of the 1970s, women's rights and opportunities in education and employment have increased across the globe. But has equality - whether social, political, or legal - really been achieved? Miriam E. David, a well-known and influential feminist in higher education, celebrates the achievements of international feminists of the past 50 years and provides a critique of how the expansion of global higher education has masked their pioneering zeal and zest for knowledge.
