The first part provides a historical overview of women's position in society, from the earliest civilizations through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.

Tarbell argues that women have made significant progress in these areas, but that there is still much work to be done to achieve true gender equality.Overall, The Book of Woman's Power is a groundbreaking work that sheds light on the history and ongoing struggles of women in society.
