Today, Wollstonecraft is recognized as a pivotal figure in feminist philosophy, with her early calls for women’s equality and critiques of conventional femininity laying the groundwork for the feminist political movement that followed. Her philosophical insights and personal experiences continue to inspire feminist scholars and activists alike. This book is featured as one of the 12 Books That Changed the World by Melvyn Bragg.
