Women's lives in Britain have changed dramatically over the course of the twentieth century: reduced fertility and hugely increased participation in education, work and public life are just some examples.

At the same time, women are under-represented in many areas, are paid significantly less than men, continue to experience domestic violence and to bear the larger part of the burden in the domestic division of labour.

This unique, illustrated history ranges across the vast changes of two world wars and diverse political and cultural revolutions. It discusses a range of the central features to women's experience:

the life course girlhood, marriage and the ageing process
the nature of women's work, both paid and unpaid
consumption, culture and transgression
citizenship and the state

This book is essential to any understanding of the history and social changes of twentieth-century Britain
