Classic collection of satirical essays, including The Feminine Mind, The War Between the Sexes, Marriage, Woman Sufrage, and The New Age. The Introduction begins: "As a professional critic of life and letters, my principal business in the world is that of manufacturing platitudes for tomorrow, which is to say, ideas so novel that they will be instantly rejected as insane and outrageous by all right thinking men, and so apposite and sound that they will eventually conquer that instinctive opposition, and force themselves into the traditional wisdom of the race."
