Hester Donaldson Jenkins (1869-1941), a professor at the American College for Girls in Constantinople from 1900-1909, wrote enthusiastically about the Young Turks, who in 1908 established a constitutional monarchy in the Ottoman Empire.

She intends her comments on childhood, education, marriage, polygamy, and divorce...

The Cost of Choice: Women Evaluate the Impact of Abortion
ISBN: 9781594030512 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We are now more than thirty years away from the Supreme Court case of Roe v Wade, yet the controversy over abortion has not diminished. Although the 'pro-choice' forces increasingly acknowledge the central claim of the 'pro-life' side -- that abortion is a morally portentous act -- they continue to insist that the well-being of women is absolutely dependent on the legal right to abortion. The twelve essays in The Costs of 'Choice', all written by women active in the public square, dispute this claim. These authors argue that over the last three decades, legal abortion has had harmful effects...

In our fast-paced world of technology and conveniences, the biological origins of women's inequality can be forgotten. This book offers a richer understanding of gender inequality by explaining a key cause-women's reproductive and lactation patterns. Until about 1900, infants nursed every fifteen minutes on average for two years because very frequent suckling prevented pregnancy. The practice evolved because it maximized infant survival.
