Victims of a false belief system, these women were following strict social convention by loyally conforming to the pretty image of the magazines, and found themselves forced to seek meaning in their lives only through a family and a home. Friedan's controversial book about these women—and every woman—would ultimately set Second Wave feminism in motion and begin the battle for equality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis ground-breaking and life-changing work remains just as powerful, important, and true as it was sixty years ago, and is essential reading both as a historical document and as a study of women living in a man's world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46250112286956,"sku":"9780141192055","price":24.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780141192055.jpg?v=1741535840","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/products\/the-feminine-mystique-by-betty-friedan-9780141192055","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
