    Women: A World History was written for students in world history, women’s history, introductory sociology and anthropology courses, and women’s studies courses.

Historian Pamela McVay explores the evolving roles of women in all parts of the world and focuses on issues particularly important in women’s lives such as lineage, family structure, and rules regarding marriage and sexuality. The book supplements core textbooks and monographs and course packs, and includes study questions and suggestions for further reading.
