Summary
[…] My conversion to the importance of the Woman Question was, as I have said, the work of “Women and Economics”; and I was thus converted by Mrs. Stetson’s unpretending little book, because in it the rights and wrongs of Femina, das Weib, were not merely opposed to the rights and wrongs of Vir, der Mann, but subordinated to those of what is, after all, a bigger item of creation: Homo, der Mensch.
