The Subjection of Women

EN · English

Mill's radical defence of equality, read in full: a spoken introduction, then all four chapters of the 1869 essay — the argument that the legal subordination of one sex to the other is wrong in itself and a hindrance to human development. For anyone ready to finally hear the book behind every argument about equality, written with Harriet Taylor's shadow on every page. Long after the last chapter, one feeling remains: the principle is simple — and you have heard Mill demand it in 1869.
