Abnormal Woman

""Abnormal Woman"" is a book written by Arthur MacDonald and published in 1895. The book is a sociological and scientific study of young women, with a focus on those who were considered abnormal or deviant in some way. MacDonald explores various aspects of these women's lives, including their physical and mental health, their social and economic status, and their relationships with men and other women.To conduct his research, MacDonald placed personal advertisements in newspapers and magazines in both America and Europe, inviting young women to write to him about their experiences. The book includes letters from many of these women, which provide valuable insights into their lives and perspectives.Throughout the book, MacDonald argues that many of the women he studied were not truly abnormal, but rather victims of societal norms and expectations that did not allow them to fully express themselves or pursue their own desires. He also discusses the ways in which these women were often exploited and mistreated by men and society at large.Overall, ""Abnormal Woman"" is a fascinating and thought-provoking study of young women in the late 19th century, and an important contribution to the fields of sociology and women's studies.With A Bibliography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
