History is not something that counts to men's credit
alone, though they have often claimed it as their
exclusive achievement. This book deals with the part that
women have played in history, and acknowledges their
role, although at the time they may have received little
acknowledgment for it.For women of all stations and in
all walks of life have made their contribution to human
history, whether they have been queens or rulers,
scientists or doctors, entertainers or artists, radicals
or conservatives, or simply wives and mothers. Whether,
too, they have made that contribution openly and on their
own account, or whether they have used their sometimes
subordinate position in society to engineer it by more
subtle means. This book serves to stress this
contribution, sometimes merely to remind the reader of it
and to restate it, but sometimes, where necessary, to re-
evaluate its true importance. Where myths or legends or
simple forgetfulness have obscured the value of women's
contributions to government, scientific research,
artistic achievement, pioneering progress or radical
reform, the writers have sought to remedy the defect and
restore women to their rightful importance, and through
that to award them the esteem that they properly deserve.
