    About this ebook

    This book describes the role of women and their significance in different eras and regions of the world. The place they held in various cultures and how they influenced the growth or downfall of different civilizations and empires. For most of the world’s history, it was written primarily by men and it usually included an account of the activities of men in war, politics and diplomacy. Even traders were mainly men and women usually belonged in the background and hardly history did not account a lot of their works.
