This volume chronicles the story of women's changing lives; not a simple story of progress but of the diversity of historical change, the complexity of women's responses and strategies both collectively and personally. Narrative chapters divided by decade are augmented by short thematic essays, on subjects such as "suffrage", "abortion rights", and "women and film". A final biographical section details the lives of significant women of the century.
