Description

Book Synopsis
Provides the study of American women's responses to evolutionary theory and illuminates the role science played in the nineteenth-century women's rights movement.

Trade Review
"From Eve to Evolution documents the ardent ways in which women's rights advocates articulated and advanced Charles Darwin's observations of female choice in the natural world as a counterargument to age-old Biblical assertions about women's roles in society. A fresh intellectual history of late nineteenth-century feminism that will interest historians of science as well as those interested in women, gender, and science issues." (Sally Gregory Kohlstedt, editor of History of Women in the Sciences)"
