This work by Mary Wollstonecraft, published by Taurus in its Great Ideas collection, is a passionate defense of female independence and a foundational milestone of modern feminism. Wollstonecraft argues that women are not inherently inferior to men, but that their lack of education makes them appear so. She advocates for a social order based on reason, where men and women are treated as rational beings. This edition includes a prologue by Nuria Varela and the translation by Marta Lois González.

Mary Wollstonecraft was an English writer and philosopher best known for her advocacy of women's rights. Until the late twentieth century, Wollstonecraft's life, which encompassed several unconventional personal relationships, received more attention than her writing. Wollstonecraft is regarded as one of the founding feminist philosophers, and feminists often cite both her life and her works as important influences.
