Paul Baweja's The Struggle of Women: Major Female Figures throughout World History is an insightful book. This succinct text explores who were some of the significant women that made a monumental contribution to world history, and what was their specific contribution. In contemporary times, greater attention has been attributed to research and writing on women in scholarly literature and academic study. Undoubtedly, the increased attention and importance contemporary scholars are now attributing to women's role in society, education, employment, culture, and politics is long overdue. Yet, so much more remains to be examined about the countless number of significant women who made ancient and modern history, in their own capacity and right. The struggle of women in the world has been an unequal one, and regrettably, it still remains an unequal one. The Struggle of Women: Major Female Figures throughout World History examines the extraordinary contribution of a number of notable women from different walks of life. It considers women across multiple nation-states, various eras and epochs, women in slavery, poverty, royalty, and aristocracy. In addition, this book identifies the majestic contribution of saintly and secular women alike, it also cuts across the variations of gender, race, colour, social class, ethnicity, private wealth, education, socio-economic status, vocation, and marital status. In doing so, this book provides a truly comprehensive narrative of the struggles and accomplishments of women. This book will illuminate and underscore the pivotal importance of women in shaping the ancient and modern world. Most importantly, this book serves as newfound impetus for the modern world to devote greater awareness to the indispensable role of women in society, culture, and politics.
