Here Shaw lays out the principles and pitfalls of socialism and capitalism, inviting readers to think for themselves about property, wealth distribution, and political power. With a particular emphasis on encouraging women to form their own opinions about economic matters, this book was meant to engage with current social events in the beginnings of the 20th century.
This first edition offers collectors a chance to own Shaw’s landmark political work in its original form, before its later expansions and reprints. A major feminist-oriented social critique and a cornerstone of early 20th-century political thought.
