| |  | | | From The Publisher Here, reissued, is the book that jump-started the modern women's movement, filled with ideas and inspiration as vital to women today as when it first appeared. More than three decades later, the issues raised by Friedan still strike at the core of the challenges women face at home and in the workplace. As women continue to struggle for equality, to keep their hard-won gains, and to find fulfillment in careers, marriage, and family, "The Feminine Mystique" remains a profound consciousness-raising work. This edition features a new introduction, "Metamorphosis: Two Generations Later," which addresses the complex issues women face today, such as family leave, health insurance, welfare reform, and sexual discrimination and harassment in the military. Betty Friedan also relates some of feminism's hard-won victories: the shrinking wage gap between men and women, increased visibility of women in sports, and new flexibility for working parents.
