Summary

"The Young Woman's Guide to Liberation is based on the premise that the 1970's are indeed the decade of the women. Here is a cogent analysis of the various sources of brainwash which makes women feel, think, and act like second-class citizens - and a timley handbook on how to break through the established barriers."--Publisher's description
