The Patriarchs: How Men Came to Rule
Fourth Estate, £20
In her previous two books, Angela Saini sought to deconstruct the hegemony of the field of science by exploring the myths of racism and sexism in the history of science. In her latest work, ‘The Patriarchs: How Men Came to Rule’, she focuses her critical lens on the origins of the patriarchy, the neglect of matriarchal societies and women’s historical oppression.
