The position of women in Britain has undergone significant changes since the war. They have won greater legal equality and, in principle, the right to equal pay, and more married women than ever go out to work. However, few women enter parliament and many work for extremely low wages.
This book examines how much has changed and why. Focusing particularly on women's legal rights, their position at work and their access to political power, it asks how far women have achieved equality and to what extent they can determine their own lives and influence future conditions.

`Carter covers a large amount of complicated debate without silting up the clarity of her style.'
Spare Rib
`Her tone is reasonable and dispassionate, her style straight-forward and deceptively simple. Every line counts, and conceals considerable research; each chapter is tidily laid out, key statistics properly in place.'
The Times Higher Education Supplement.
