This well-loved copy of “Potential of Woman” by Seymour Farber offers a fascinating glimpse into the second-wave feminist movement of the 1970s. Published in 1976, Farber’s work explores the societal and cultural barriers that women faced in realizing their full potential, both in the workplace and at home. As a sociologist and professor at Rutgers University, Farber brought a scholarly yet accessible perspective to the ongoing dialogue surrounding women’s rights and gender equality. While some of the statistics and research may seem dated to modern readers, the core themes of empowerment, self-actualization, and breaking free from traditional gender roles remain relevant today. The blue pen markings throughout the pages suggest this copy was well-studied and engaged with, perhaps by a student or academic delving into the feminist discourse of the era. For collectors of feminist literature or sociological works, this book offers a window into the intellectual underpinnings of a pivotal movement in American history.
