Bluestockings: The Remarkable Story of the First Women to Fight for an Education
Jane Robinson
In 1869, when five women enrolled at university for the first time in British history, the average female brain was thought to be 150 grams lighter than a man's. Doctors warned that if women studied too hard their wombs would wither and die. This title tells the story of the fight for female education in Britain.
