The Women's Bible: A Classic Feminist Perspective

Published in two parts in 1895 and 1898, and written by Stanton with a committee of twenty-six other women, The Women's Bible challenges the tradition of religion that woman should be subservient to man. Stanton introduced a radical, women's theology, that stressed independance and self development. The book attracted a great deal of controversy and antagonism in it's time, and became a run away bestseller. It remains to this day a standard text in Women's Studies.
