Patriarchal Attitudes. First edition, first impression, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Arthur - because he asked for it! Eva 22.5.70". Figes's feminist polemic examines "in historical perspective the attitudes which have helped to determine the role of women in society" (blurb). It was published at a crucial moment in the feminist movement, the same year as Germaine Greer's The Female Eunuch and Kate Millett's Sexual Politics.
